General notes on handling

®
The photoLab 6100 VIS photometer is an optical precision meter. There-
fore, it should always be handled with care, especially in mobile use. Always
protect the meter from conditions that could damage the mechanical, optical
and electronic components. Heed the following points especially:
 The temperature and humidity during operation and storage must be
within the limits specified in chapter 7 T
 The following influences always have to be avoided with the meter:
– Extreme dust, moisture and wetness
– Exposure to intensive light and heat
– Fumes that are corrosive or contain high concentrations of solvents.
 For measuring, the meter must be placed on a flat surface.
 Spilled liquid or other material should be removed immediately (see sec-
tion 5.3 C
LEANING
 If a cell has broken in the cell shaft, the cell shaft should be cleaned imme-
diately (see section 6.1 A
 The cell shaft should always be closed when the photometer is not used.
 During transport of the photometer, the cell shaft has to be empty.
 For mobile use we recommend the transport case FC spectral 6000 (see
section 8.1 A
