Use the Function 'UNIT_CONVERSION_SIMPLE'

DATA: VALUE_IN  TYPE F,
      VALUE_OUT TYPE F,
      UNIT_IN   LIKE T006-MSEHI,
      UNIT_OUT  LIKE T006-MSEHI.

...

CALL FUNCTION 'UNIT_CONVERSION_SIMPLE'
     EXPORTING
            INPUT                = VALUE_IN
           ROUND_SIGN           = 'X'
           UNIT_IN              = UNIT_IN
           UNIT_OUT             = UNIT_OUT
     IMPORTING
           OUTPUT               = VALUE_OUT
     EXCEPTIONS
          CONVERSION_NOT_FOUND = 01
          DIVISION_BY_ZERO     = 02
          INPUT_INVALID        = 03
           OVERFLOW             = 04
          OUTPUT_INVALID       = 05
          UNITS_MISSING        = 06
          UNIT_IN_NOT_FOUND    = 07
          UNIT_OUT_NOT_FOUND   = 08.

Double click on field type MEINS to navigate to data element, then again on domain and see that convers. routine is CUNIT. Double click on that and pop up window comes up and shows function modules used in conversion
