alignment of the

into your IR spectrometer system. This guide is a supplement to the
Instruction Manual provided for the accessory itself where more detailed information can be found.
Step 1 – Install the Benchmark™ Baseplate into your spectrometer
The Benchmark™ baseplate supplied allows the Quest ATR Accessory to be
positioned correctly in the sample compartment of your specific spectrometer.
Please consult the relevant page of the Benchmark™ Baseplate Installation Guide
instruction manual (2I-549-000-7) if you need more information.
Step 2 – Fit the Quest ATR Accessory (Optical Unit) to the Baseplate
The Quest ATR Accessory can now be fitted onto the baseplate.
The Optical Unit is placed over the baseplate support pillars and
the central front Fixing Thumbscrew tightened into the central pillar.
Step 3 – Fit the ATR Crystal Puck to the Optical Unit
The Quest ATR accessory is normally supplied with the ATR Crystal Puck already in place
on the Optical Unit. Release the pressure tower and remove any packing material on the
diamond.
