5. Operation
Note:
Before the detector is ready to use for measurements, a flow cell
must be installed. You can change the optical path length of a preparative
flow cell before assembling the flow cell. The optimal path length de-
pends on type and quantity of the sample.
5.1 Checklist before operation
Device is in a location which suits the ambient conditions and space
requirements specified in section „Ambient conditions“ on page 9.
