CHEM2000-UV-VIS Sampling Components
ISS-UV-VIS Integrated Sampling System
The ISS-UV-VIS Integrated Sampling System that comes with the CHEM2000-UV-VIS is a combination of
a RF deuterium source with a tungsten halogen bulb connected to a cuvette holder for 1-cm cuvettes. The
cuvette holder attaches directly to the light source and has a 5-mm diameter f/2 collimating lens to collect the
light and funnel it to the solarization-resistant optical fiber that also comes with the CHEM2000-UV-VIS.
The ISS-UV-VIS can be operated manually or through the software.
Parts Included
•
ISS-UV-VIS Deuterium Tungsten Light Source/Cuvette Holder
•
Power cord for connecting the ISS-UV-VIS to outlet
•
15-pin accessory cable for software control of the ISS-UV-VIS
Caution!
"
The beam emerging from the ISS-UV-VIS produces low levels of ultraviolet radiation. Direct eye contact
could cause eye injury. Safety eyewear is recommended.
"
Never look directly into the light source, sight down the beam into the source or stare at the diffuse
reflected beam.
"
Dangerous voltages present. NO serviceable parts inside unit. To replace bulbs, contact Ocean Optics.

Operation
Adjusting the Fit of the Cuvette for the ISS-UV-VIS
The ISS-UV-VIS is designed to hold 1-cm square cuvettes. When properly adjusted, the cuvette should fit
snugly into the holder.
1.
Locate the two ball plunger screws.
2.
Use the screwdriver to loosen the two ball plunger screws until the ball end of each screw is just
visible in the holder.
3.
Insert your cuvette into the holder.
4.
Gently tighten the screws until the ball contacts the cuvette and starts to compress.
Do not
over-tighten.
Setting Up the ISS-UV-VIS
1.
Attach the 300-µm solarization-resistant optical fiber that came with you CHEM2000-UV-VIS to the
SMA connector on the front of the sample holder and attach the other end of this fiber to the SMA
connector on the PC2000 installed in your computer.
