Replacing the Tungsten Lamp
WARNING Operating the instrument with the cover off exposes the operator to
potentially dangerous voltages and ultraviolet (UV) radiation. Therefore, we recommend
that only authorized service representatives perform procedures requiring removal of the
instrument cover and replacement of electrical components. To protect both yourself and
the instrument, be sure to contact an authorized service representative to perform any
service procedure you do not feel comfortable performing.
Routine care for the spectrophotometer does not require a lot of time. To help minimize
maintenance time and increase the life and performance of your instrument, please follow
these guidelines:
• Always replace the dust cover when the instrument is not turned on to prevent dust from
accumulating in and on the instrument.
• Do not use or store the instrument in a corrosive environment.
• Gently wipe the outside of the instrument, including the keypad, with a soft cloth to
remove any dust or spills. Water, isopropyl alcohol and other common laboratory
cleaning agents may be used if necessary.
• Always clean up spills as soon as they occur to prevent or minimize damage to the
instrument. If concentrated acids or bases, or any hydrocarbon materials, are spilled on
the instrument, clean up the affected area immediately.
