ProStar 363 Fluorescence Detector

Metallic wire

Figure 14 Protrusion of Lamp Bulb

NOTE:

Mount the xenon lamp so that the protruding part of the bulb comes to
the instrument front panel side (see Figure 14). A mistake in the
positioning may cause an increased light loss and preclude obtaining the
desired performance from the instrument.
