Installing Slide-mounted Accessories
The Smart OMNI-Transmission accessory can be used to measure slide-mounting samples
and to install most slide-mounting accessories. If you don’t have the Smart
OMNI-Transmission accessory, the standard sample holder can accommodate slide-mounting
accessories (such as a variable angle ATR) as well as thin film samples and optical filters. To
install a slide-mounting sample or accessory, slide the sample or accessory into one pair of
slots in the standard sample holder.
Use the adjustment screw to position the sample vertically so that it is roughly centered in the
infrared beam.
Installing Other Accessories
Note
The following procedure explains how to install accessories that are not Smart
accessories. This procedure applies only if a sample compartment extension kit has been
installed.
NOTICE
Your accessory must be mounted on one of our baseplates. If it is not, you can
remove an accessory from one of our baseplates and install your accessory on that
baseplate, or visit our web site at www.thermo.com/spectroscopy for assistance.
