Changing cell holders
If you want to use longpath cells (cylindrical or
rectangular), use test tubes, measure solid filters or
regulate cell temperature via an external water
circulator, you must install the appropriate cell
holders. You can easily remove the 6-Position Cell
Holder installed in the instrument and install other
accessory cell holders.
*Whenever you change from one type of cell
holder to another, you must measure a blank. This
ensures that the instrument can detect which type
of cell holder is installed.
Removing the 6-Position Cell Holder
1.
Open the sample compartment and let the
sample compartment door rest on its hinge.
2.
With one hand, loosen the captive thumbscrew.
3.
With the other hand, pull straight up on the 6-
Position Cell Holder and lift it out of the sample
compartment.
Installing the 6-Position Cell Holder
1.
Open the sample compartment and let the
sample compartment door rest on its hinge.
2.
With one hand, carefully lower the 6-Position
Cell Holder straight down into the sample
compartment.
3.
With the other hand, tighten the captive
thumbscrew.
4.
Close the sample compartment.
5.
Take a blank measurement to ensure that the
instrument detects that you have installed the
6-Position Cell Holder.
Installing the Single-Position Cell Holder
1.
With the sample compartment open, place the
Single-Position Cell Platform as shown in
Figure 5.
2.
Tighten the screws securely.
Note:
If the cell holder is not aligned correctly, you
will not be able to tighten the screws.
