  • Page 10: Principle Of Operation

    4.3. PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION Absorption of light is a typical phenomenon of interaction between electromagnetic radiation and matter. A spectrophotometer separates electromagnetic radiation (white light) into its component wavelengths and selectively measures the intensity of the radiation after it passes through a sample. The white light is passed through a prism to disperse the light into bands of color.

  • Page 11: Optical System

    4.4. OPTICAL SYSTEM Optical System Block Diagram A tungsten halogen lamp is used as the light source for the entire working range of the meter (340 nm to 900 nm). The tungsten halogen lamp produces a white light that is passed to a diffraction grating. The diffraction grating splits the polychromatic white light into the visible color spectrum, allowing for specific wavelengths to be selected.

  • Page 12: Operating Mode

    5. OPERATING MODE 5.1. START UP When the instrument is powered on, all the LCD tags will be visible for several seconds before the auto-diagnostic tests run.
