Absorbance and transmittance measurement
Measurement notes
For the best accuracy and reproducibility:
• Set the zero reference point before measurement. Set the zero
reference point again when a measurement is not taken for several
hours as shown in Absorbance and transmittance measurement
procedure on page 28.
• Color, transmittance and absorbance measurements use the same
zero reference point. Color, absorbance and transmittance can be
measured on a single sample after setting a zero reference point in
one of the three modes.
• Use a flow cell for measurements. A flow cell is necessary to get the
accuracy and reproducibilty specifications shown in Specifications
on page 5.
If a flow cell is not used, use a single indexed sample cell or match
sample cells. Sample cells should be matched using the
Transmittance or Absorbance modes. Refer to Matching sample cells
on page 21.
• Refer to Measurement notes on page 25 for more measurement
notes.
