Installing the UATR
Fitting the accessory
The UATR fits into the sample compartment of the spectrometer, replacing the sample plate.
NOTE:
Before you begin you should, if necessary, loosen the pressure arm and release the
transit block that secures the UATR pressure arm during transport.
You may also need to remove the covers on the left and right sides of the accessory,
and the top-plate dust cover.
Store all these in a safe place for future use, if required.
To remove the sample plate and install the UATR:
1.
Raise the sample cover of the spectrometer to the vertical position and lift it upwards,
clear of the instrument.
Store it in a safe place for future re-use.
2.
Slide the sample plate out of the sample area (Figure 3).
Store it in a safe place for future re-use.
