ing test strips.
2.6. System description
2.6.1. Measuring principle
The test strip moves below a fixed measuring head on a sled with an embedded
reference pad. The reflectometric analysis of the test strip and the reference
field take place during withdrawal and release of the sled.
Pic. 5: Measuring Principle
The strip is illuminated with an LED and a detector registers the intensity of light
reflected by the test strip at three different wavelengths. Using an internal cali-
bration, the results are calculated from the reflection values. Whenever samples
are strongly alkaline, a density correction is automatically conducted.
