Attaching the Transmittance Specimen Holder to the instrument
• Do not spill a specimen or other liquid on the instrument. Doing so may cause malfunction. If any liquid is
Notes
spilled on the instrument, wipe it off immediately with a soft, dry cloth.
• Limit the thickness of a specimen to be set on the Transmittance Specimen Holder (optical path length) to 22.5
mm. (The total thickness of the Cell (20 mm) or Plastic Cell (20 mm) and the glass will be 22.5 mm.) Using a
specimen or container exceeding this thickness may cause damage.
• To move the position of a specimen after it is set in the Transmittance Specimen Holder, open the specimen
fixing plate beforehand to protect the surface of a specimen or the container of a specimen.
1. Open the Transmittance Specimen Chamber Cover.
2. As shown in the figure, align the mounting screw of the
Transmittance Specimen Holder with the screw hole on
the instrument for mounting the holder and tighten the
screw with a flat-blade screwdriver.
Although the Transmittance Specimen Holder can be
Memo
attached facing either the illumination window side or the
receiving window side, attach it facing the illumination
window side for normal use. In this case, the geometry will
be diffuse illumination and 0° viewing angle (di: 0°, de:
0°). If the Transmittance Specimen Holder is attached
facing the receiving window side, the geometry is
approximately 0°:0° geometry. Although the geometry
does not strictly satisfy standards for 0°:0° geometry, this
presents no problems if the values are used as relative
values.
Memo To attach the holder with the sample or cell on the
receiving window side, attach the CM-A199 Transmittance
Specimen Holder Attachment before the holder.
