Preparation of Gyro Supporting Liquid Various Types

This document provides instructions for preparing gyro supporting liquid for different gyrocompass models. The liquid is made by mixing distilled water, benzoic acid, and glycerine at specified ratios and heating the mixture until the benzoic acid dissolves. The proper composition is important for gyro operation and to avoid potential damage. Specific gravity measurements of the prepared liquid are also specified to ensure it meets standards.
