Installing your UV-Visible Spectrophotometer
Your spectrophotometer is very easy to install. This section provides an
overview of the instrument and a checklist of the main installation procedure.
If you have accessories for the spectrophotometer which are not covered in
this section, see Chapter 4, "Installing Accessories" or refer to the
documentation that was delivered with your accessories for detailed
information.
Instrument overview
The front view of the spectrophotometer is shown in Figure 1 which shows the
sample compartment open. Unlike conventional instruments the UV-Visible
spectrophotometer does not suffer from ambient stray light. The open sample
area makes it easier to access it generally and to connect tubing to a flow cell
or thermostattable cell holder. The spectrophotometer is shipped with the
standard single-cell cell holder already in place. Standard and accessory cell
holders can be removed and replaced in seconds with few or no tools.
