Measuring against the Reference absorbance

Each time the photometer is switched on, the absorbance or transmission is 
measured against the absorbance of the zero adjustment as a basis. You 
can, however, also determine a 

Reference absorbance

 and use it as the 

basis.

The 

Reference absorbance

 refers to the adjusted wavelength. The measured 

value remains stored until

the instrument is switched off

the cell type is changed

the wavelength is changed

a new reference value is measured

it is deleted manually (

Single and multiple

determination

The Reference absorbance can be determined with single or multiple deter-
mination. With multiple determination, the mean value is calculated as the 
median from the individual measured values.
