CONVERSIONS
Ounces (fluid) x 29.57 = mL
Ounces (dry) x 28.35 = Grams
Cubic Ft. x 7.5 = gallons
Gal x 8.34 = Lbs
Gal x 3785 = mL
Gal/Hr x 63 = mL/MIN
Grains/Gal x 17.1 = PPM
Grams x 15.43 = Grains
MGD x 694 = GPM
10,000 PPM = 1%
Pounds x 453 = Grams
PPM x 8.33 = Lb/Mil. Gal
Quarts x 946 = mL
Cubic Ft. x 62.4 = Pounds
Pounds x 7000 = Grains

Feed Rate Formulas
In the following calculations:
pi = 3.14, L = Length, W = Width
D = Diameter, H = Height
= lb/hr Area = A(sq ft.):
Rectangle: V= L x W

Circle: V=
= gal/hr Volume = V( cu. ft.):
Rectangular Tanks: V= L x W x H

Circular Tanks: V=
= PPM In Pipes: V=
= PPM
GPM = GPM of plant
* 6 min collection for dry feeder
Divide pipe diameters by 12 to convert from inches to feet. Example: 8 inch pipe divided by 12 equals 0.66 feet.
