Adjusting the new xenon lamp
Choices
There are two choices after lamp installation:
Let the lamp "burn in", i.e., run, for 6 h before adjustment of its position.
Set the coarse lamp adjustments immediately. After a 6-h burn-in, set the fine ad-
justments.
For lamp replacement, the major adjustment is to optimize the height screw that was
loosened to remove the old xenon lamp.
Procedure
1
With the lamp
cover still re-
moved, turn on
the FluoroMax
4.
2
Insert a clean cuvette filled with de-ionized wa-
ter in the sample compartment.
3
With the room lights off and ambient stray light
minimized, acquire a xenon-lamp scan and wa-
ter-Raman scan, as explained in Chapter 3.
