SetupSetup
- Insert the fiber optic cable into the reflective cuvette.
- Place the nut on the cable over the threads in the cuvette and turn the nut until finger-tight.
- Insert the reflective cuvette into the UV-VIS Spectrometer. Align the triangle on the cuvette with the notch on the test chamber (FigureFigure 11).
CAUTION: It is important that the cuvette is aligned correctly. Incorrect alignment may result in the fiber optic cable pointing at the UV light source instead of the light sensor.
