Compartment again and close the lid.  

7.

 

Record the Absorbance reading on the Digital Display window. 

8.

 

Advance the wavelength setting by 1 nm and repeat 

steps 4 to 7

9.

 

Repeat 

step 8

 until the wavelength setting reaches 370 nm. 

10.

 

Look for the maximum absorbance reading obtained, and this should be found within 
359~363 nm.  The wavelength accuracy of the unit is 

±

 2 nm. 

 
 

Didymium Filter Method 

1.

 

Set the Wavelength to 800 nm. 

2.

 

Make sure the cuvette adapter is empty and place it in the Sample Compartment.  Close the 
lid. 

3.

 

Set zero Abs by pressing the 

0A/100%T 

(

)

 

button.  Wait a few seconds when the display 

flashes. The reading should then be 0.000A.  If not, repeat 

step 3

4.

 

Remove the Cuvette Holder and insert the Didymium filter into it.  Place it in the Sample 
Compartment and close the lid. 

5.

 

Record the Absorbance reading on the Digital Display window. 

6.

 

Advance the wavelength setting by 1 nm and repeat 

steps 2 to 5

7.

 

Repeat 

step 6

 until the wavelength setting reaches 815 nm. 

8.

 

Look for the maximum absorbance reading obtained, it should be within 805-809 nm.  The 
wavelength accuracy of the unit is 

±

 2 nm. 

9.

 

If a “middle” wavelength check is desired, set the wavelength to 522

 nm (optional) 

10.

 

Make sure the cuvette adapter is empty and place it in the Sample Compartment.  Close the 
lid. 

11.

 

Set zero Abs by pressing the 

0A/100%T 

(

)

 

button.  Wait a few seconds when the display 

flashes.  The reading should then be 0.000A.  If not repeat 

step 11

12.

 

Remove the cuvette adapter and insert the Didymium filter into it.  Place it in the Sample 
Compartment again and close the lid. 

13.

 

Record the absorbance reading on the Digital Display window. 

14.

 

Advance the wavelength setting by 1 nm and repeat 

step 10 to 13

15.

 

Repeat 

step 14

 until the wavelength setting reaches 536 nm.  Again, look for the maximum 

absorbance reading.  It should be within 527-531 nm. 

 
 

Absorbance Accuracy Check 

Specification:  

± 

2% at 1A (

65-3303

The absorbance accuracy should be checked against a set of neutral density filters accurately 
calibrated to the NIST standards.  Contact your 

Carolina

 representative for more information. 

 

Stray Light Check 

Specification:  Less than 0.5%T at 340 nm by ASTM (American Society for Testing and Materials) 
E 387 (Molecular Spectroscopy and Separation Science Standards), also see
