Checking Wavelength of the Instrument
The instrument can automatically check the accuracy of indicated value of the instrument
wavelength. If finding a mistake, may use a mercury-arc lamp to check (If there is no mercury-arc
lamp, a fluorescent lamp can be used instead, but a professional man must be needed to do such
work. The concrete method and the correcting procedures will be briefed through training.).
The wavelengths of spectral lines of a mercury-arc lamp are listed in the Table 1-1 and the
spectrogram is seen in Fig 1-9.
