3. MEASUREMENT PRINCIPLES
The concentration of a solute that absorbs light at a determinate wavelength can be determined with
a spectrophotometer. The fraction of light absorbed is proportional to the concentration of the
absorbing solute (Beer’s low):
(1) I / I0 = e-kc
Where:
I0= Incident light intensity before going through to sample.
I= Transmitted light intensity through to sample.
K= Constant that depends upon the length of light path, nature of the substance and the
light wavelength used.
C= Substance concentration in solution.
Equation (1) can be changed into:
log( I0/I) = kc
The quantity log(I0/I) is called Optical Density (OD) or Absorbance (ABS) and is proportional to
concentration.
A spectrophotometer measures the intensity of a known wavelength (measured in nanometers, nm)
of light passed through the sample: OD = log( I0/I)
By using specific reagents in solution for the substance that we want to measure, it is possible to
estimate the constant ( k) for a fixed wavelength, in this way transmitted light intensity becomes
concentration function.
The instrument has a reading point, kept at 25-30-37°C temperature, and in order to perform a
measure it will be necessary to have:
 Analysis with flow cell using a peristaltic pump.

 Keeping manual cuvette at 37°C temperature using external incubator.

OUTLET
Before switching on the instrument, remember to connect the plastic outlet connector
(blue) to a waste tank by means of a silicone tube.
4.4 Location of the instrument
The instrument should be located in a clean environment, placed on a stable surface, away from dir-
ect sunlight which could affect the operating temperature and the quantity of light measured by the
instrument.
The following points should be taken into consideration.
- Ensure that it is on one level.
- Avoid positions subject to jerks or vibrations.
- Make sure that the instrument is not placed close to air conditioning or heat sources.
- For the long life of the instrument these temperature conditions should be followed.
5°C - 50°C for instrument storage.
15°C - 30°C for instrument use.
4.5 Power supply connection
- Please check the setting of power supply switch according to your country’s electrical net-
work.
- Connect the power plug to a grounded AC wall outlet, preferably not shared with other
electric appliances and with low fluctuation of the line voltage compared to the standard
voltage specified (10-15%).
7
- Keep the instrument away from other appliances that generate high frequency electrical
noises (e.g. radiological instruments).
- Before connecting the power cord, check that the AC power supply is of the same value as
the one stated on the label stuck on the instrument.

Caution
Do not connect to an AC power supply different to the value indicated on the label.
- Before connecting the power and finishing the installation section, make sure that the
instrument is switched off (check the polysnap located on the rear part of the instrument).
- Make sure that your AC main line has an efficient ground line. A bad ground line
connection may compromise analysis results and damage the instrument.
- After switching on the instrument, do not go near the fan with liquids or micro solid
substances.
- Pay attention not to spill liquids and micro solid substances on the surface around the
instrument.
- Keep the instrument away from young children.
If the above procedures are carefully followed up, it will be possible to SWITCH ON the
instrument by using the switch located on the polysnap block.
4.6 Reset and switching off
To reset the instrument:

 turn off the switch.
 wait for 5 seconds.
 turn on the switch.
Remember that the instrument must only be reset if the software does not work.

4.7 Measurement lock settings
Open the measurement lock cover. It is placed on the left part on the top of the instrument.
You will find:
- a peristaltic pump that allows the solution to enter the instrument for measurement.
- two hollows: one, below, for reading and one for the flow cell service place.
- an incubator which keeps the cuvette at the temperature of approximately 37°C.
- a inlet pipe.
To set the pipe in reading mode, rotate it by about 90 degrees clockwise as displayed in
the figure below, until the tube fits perfectly onto the hole in front of the instrument.
4.8 Tube setting

Pump type A: Make sure that the transparent tube (the one that connects the steel inlet pipe with the
internal hydraulic circuit) is not twisted or squashed.
Place the red tube around the peristaltic pump and make sure that the white plastic connections are
set as shown in the figure.
Pump type B (from serial number 1131559): Make sure that the transparent tube (the one that
connects the steel inlet pipe with the internal hydraulic circuit) is not twisted or squashed.

In this screen you can monitor (after having filled water) tension coming from optical group (OPT
TENS) and tension coming in A/D converter (A/D TENS) , using a particular filter (FILTER)
WATCH TENSION SCREEN is very useful to verify lamp calibration , filter / lamp / lens /
photodiode / preamp board quality , position sensor working.
Moreover in this screen you can test correct pump motion.
As you enter this menu:
 you have to select one filter using 1…6 key
1…. 340nm
2…. 405nm
3…. 505nm
4…. 546nm
5…. 578nm
6…. 630nm
 Press PUSH BUTTON to fill water.
 Look at OPT TENS and A/D TENS values.
 Press any other 1…6 key if you want to change filter, press PUSH BUTTON if you want to fill
again water.
If you have a correct calibrated optical group, when you use the flow cell, the OPT TENS values
are between 250 mV (for 340 nm) and about 3.5 V (for 630 nm) for all filters.
If you have a correct working of digital potentiometer , you will see A/D TENS value in this range :
 3.5V +/- 10% for OPT TENS < 3.5 V
 OPT TENS + /- 5% for OPT TENS > 3.5 V
13
Function FILTER HOME is useful to monitor position sensor activity.
Each time you set a filter position program is showing you number of step sensor has recognized
wheel crack :
If recovery position system is working well:
 for every filter this number must be similar.

 this number has to be <=4.
 this number has to be >0.

Appendix 2: The flow cell does not aspire correctly:
The red tube of peristaltic pump ( pump type A) does not aspire well.
The white tube of peristaltic pump (pump type B) does not aspire well. To check this operate as
follow:
 Switch on the instrument and when chessboard appair press number 7 several times
 The following screen will appair:
5100 1150
 5100 is the default pump step number for pump type A

 1150 is the default pump step number for pump type B
 Prepare 500 l of water in a cuvette set the aspiration tip in an bottom angle of
manual cuvette and press (.) key to aspire
 If the pump works correctly, the water should be aspired completely from the
manual cuvette, and also the aspiration tip should be empty from water:
 Repeat operation several times
The aspiration tip should Water stops here 10 cm

be empty from water after from cuvette hose

If water stops at beginning of aspiration tip or stops to near the cuvette the red tube has a problem
and you have to adjust aspiration by changing the aspiration pump steps.
proceed as follow:
 Press up arrow keys to increase aspiration pump steps (the liquid will stop nearer to cuvette)
 Press down arrow keys to decrese aspiration pump steps(the liquid will stop further to
cuvette)
 Prepare 500 l of water in a cuvette set the aspiration tip in an bottom angle of manual
cuvette and press (.) key to aspire
 If the pump works correctly, the water should be aspired completely from the manual
cuvette, and also the aspiration tip should be empty from water:
 Keep adjusting until the aspiration is correct
Press right arrow key to return at default pump step number
Appendix 3: Red tube changing
1. Disconnect the red tube from peristaltic pump by pulling one of the white holder.
2. Free the red tube from holders by pulling the two white pieces apart:
3. Measure the red tube with a ruler, the length must be 10 cm, if not cut the exceeding of the
tube with sharp cutter and set the tube back. Then check aspiration as appendix 2.
Sometimes red tubs go longer than 10cm especially in hot wheather
