I do not have the formula, sorry. I would lean on your solder supplier to
help you.

Have you determined a root cause for the Sn levels to decrease?  I was
wondering because, we are beginning to use white tin for a final finish.

Hi Technet,

I just received an analyses report for our solder bath composition, and my
Sn level is at 61.5 percent instead of the nominal 63 percent. This is at
the edge of the J-STD-001C specification, so I'll have to add some pure tin
to the pot.
Last time was many years ago, and unfortunately I forgot the formula for
calculating the amount of tin to add.
It can't be that difficult, but I thought it would be quicker to ask.

Thanks,
