Preface 1. Safety This instruments are designed according to the following safety documents: 《 IEC 61010 — 1: 2001》 (Which is: 《Measurement, Control and Laboratory Electric Equipments Safety Requirement》 Part 1) and 《IEC 60601 — 1:1988》(Which is: 《Electric Apparatus of Medical Treatment》 Part 1). 2.
I. Summary Scanning Series UV/Vis Spectrophotometer have the characters of wide range of wavelength, high sensitivity, powerful function, easy to use, simple structure and pretty figure. Besides these, the large LCD, High Precise A/D and easy to store RAM makes the instrument much more superior than other originals.
3. Main Functions Scanning Series UV/Vis Spectrophotometer has functions below as main three parts. Photometry The photometric mode can be switched between Absorbance, Transmittance and Energy. You can use single-point method to measure the concentration. Quantitative Coefficient Method, Standard Curve Method and Input Method. The Regression Equation and the test result can be stored in the RAM and printed out.

2. D2 Lamp Press anduse to choose “D Lamp on or off” then press to confirm. Users can switch Off the D2 Lamp when test in the wavelength range of 340-1100nm, so as to prolong the life time of D2 lamp. After some period of usage(About 1000h), the energy would drop off to a low level,and the test data in the UV range would get instable and deviate a lot from the experiential value.
V. Instrument Maintenance To keep the instrument work in good condition, constant maintain is needed. 1. Daily Maintain (1) Check the Room After measurement, the cuvettes with sample solutions should be taken out of the compartment in time. Or the volatilization of the solution would make the mirror go moldy. Users must pay more attention to the corrosive sample and liquid easy to volatilize.
Cuvettes polluted Clean the cuvettes (6) Incorrect Reading Possible Reason Solution Dark Current Error Re-get the dark current Worse matching of the cuvettes Improve the matching of the cuvettes 3. Spare parts replacement (1) Replace the Fuse Danger! Be sure to switch off the power and unplug the socket before replacement! Step 1, Tools Preparation Prepare a 3×75 Flat Blade screwdriver.
Page 30
Fig. 5-2 Step 5, Reset the Fuse Seat Replace the fuse seat in the power socket. Step 6, Switch On the Power Plug the socket and switch on the power. (2) Replace Lamps High temperature! Wait 20 minutes before open the lamp chamber after power off to avoid scald! Step 1, Tools Preparation Prepare a 6×150mm Cross Blade screwdriver and a pair of glove.
