  • Page 8: Background

    BackgrOuND The word “photometer” originates from two other words — photo, which means light, and meter, which means instrument. Together the two words mean “an instrument for measuring light.” Photometers (or light meters) are used in many household and commercial applications, including some we may not be aware of.

It is not meant to be removed from the cable, and your product warranty will be voided if it is removed. Detector The Detector, or light sensing element, is approximately one centimeter square with a 7 mm diameter aperture in the center of the Detector Housing.

    The only service and maintenance that the Digital Photometer should require is battery replacement and “zeroing.” Instructions for both procedures follow. All other adjustments have been made at Industrial Fiber Optics facilities. Battery Installation The recommended batteries for this meter are standard, heavy-duty or alkaline 9-volt batteries.

    “Zeroing” Procedure Periodically it may become necessary to adjust the Control/Display Unit so it reads zero. in the absence of light. (When the meter is on the 20 µwatt scale the display sometimes cannot be totally zeroed because of stray ambient light. In those cases, subtract the DC offset from your readings.) Zeroing the Photometer can be done using the following procedure.
  • Page 19: Warranty

    The costs of return shipments for a Digital Photometer no longer under warranty must be paid by the customer. If an item is not under warranty, repairs will not be undertaken until the cost of such repairs have been prepaid by the customer. Typical repair costs range from $50 - $75, and completion times from two to three weeks.

  • Page 21 12 0105 Rules for Laser Safety • Lasers produce a very intense beam of light. Treat them with respect. Most educational lasers have an output of less than 3 milliwatts, and will not harm the skin. • Never look into the laser aperture while the laser is turned on! PERMANENT EYE DAMAGE COULD RESULT.
