Customizable Absorbance Paddle
Two absorbance paddles are included for customization (Figure 33). The
absorbance paddle can accommodate any filter in the spectral range of
400–800nm that is 12.7mm in diameter and less than 6.4mm thick. Contact
Promega for the most current information on filter availability.
Wavelengths for custom filters cannot be entered by the user. You have the
option of selecting the custom positions labeled A or B.
To assemble the absorbance paddle, simply place the filter (with the mirror
side down) into the opening. Press down on the filter collar until filter fits
snugly. Avoid getting smudges or fingerprints on the filter.
To remove the filter, turn the absorbance paddle upside down. Press down on
the collar of the filter. Avoid touching the filter itself.
