Description:
The A
cton
Model DS-421 is a 30 watt deuterium light source system designed for
use with
Acton
series spectrometers. It consists of a 30 watt deuterium
lamp (Hamamatsu p/n L591), housing with light source collections mirror and fan,
interconnecting cable, and deuterium power supply. The lamp is factory installed
and aligned prior to shipment. Adjustments are provided on the light collecting
mirror mount in the event that realignment becomes necessary.
Mounting:
For proper operation, the lamp housing should be mounted to the entrance slit of the
spectrometer. The light collection mirror, located inside the lamp housing, is
designed to focus light from the lamp onto the entrance slit of the spectrometer. To
mount the lamp housing to the entrance slit, the following procedure is
recommended:
1. Locate the two (2) shoulder screws and the two (2) 8-32 cap screws supplied
with the DS-421. Insert the shoulder screws into the two bottom outside
tapped holes of the entrance slit of the spectrometer and tighten the screws.
These are sued to mount the lamp housing.
2. Remove the four (4) slotted screws from the top of the lamp housing, then
remove the cover.

flange over the shoulder screws in the entrance slit of the spectrometer. Insure
that the top two holes of the lamp housing mounting flange align properly
with the top tow tapped holes of the spectrometer entrance slit.
4. Insert the two (2) 8-32 cap screws in the top two holes of the lamp housing
mounting flange and tighten the screws.
