System StabiIity
Measured by performance in the areas of:
#epeatability ata over one hour
Average Std. ev. = 0.0028
#eproducibility ata over five days
Average Std. ev. = 0.0022
StabiIity Requirements
lient requires
#epeatability
Std. ev. < 0.04
#eproducibility
Std. ev. < 0.1
onclusion: LMS meets short- and long-term
stability specifications
!4ssibIe StabiIity VariabIes
SOPs
W Sensitive set-up can result in measurement
variables, such as:
- Ambient light (signal to noise)
- Fiber optic cable connections (attenuation)
- Operator error
- Light source or spectrometer damage
- Filter clarity
