What does the unit grain/gallon (UK) measure?

Grain/gallon (UK) measures mass concentration, indicating the mass of substance in grains per imperial gallon of fluid.

Why convert grain/gallon (UK) to psi/1000 feet?

Converting grain/gallon (UK) to psi/1000 feet helps relate water hardness or dissolved solids to hydrostatic pressure gradients used in wellbore engineering.

Is this conversion affected by temperature or fluid properties?

Yes, temperature and fluid variations can influence accuracy because the conversion assumes uniform fluid composition and standard gravity.
