When the
actual
temperature being indicated on the 4000 Series
controller display has fallen sufficiently (to about 60°C), release any
tonnage load force being applied by the Press being used.
Raise the front safety guard and rotate the lead screw (
9
) anticlockwise
of the Press sufficiently to allow for removal of the spacer bar (
20
).
Carefully lift the Top Half Assembly using the lifting handle handle (
16
)
from the
Sampling Position
to the
Loading Position
(See
Fig 11.
).
Using the forceps supplied remove the spacer ring (
18
). If the spacer
ring (
18
) has become stuck into position and is not easily removed
using the forceps, then a small flat bladed screwdriver may be
employed within the groove around the spacer ring circumference (see
Fig 12.
page 21) to carefully prise out of its location.
On separation of the Top Half Assembly to install into the
Loading
Position
, the pressed thin film at a 29mm diameter contained between
the foil discs (
21
) may be attached to either the top (
13
) or lower (
14
)
polished pressing faces, or attached to the spacer ring (
18
).
The sample film “sandwich” can be carefully removed from the top (
13
)
and/or, lower (
14
) polished pressing faces, or the spacer ring (
18
), by
use of the forceps that are provided. Similarly, the forceps can then be
used to separate and peel away the foil discs (
21
) from the
compressed thin film sample.
The prepared thin film can then be mounted in a Specacard (P/N
GS03800 or P/N GS03810) or a magnetic film holder P/N GS03820 for
spectroscopic analysis.
