Disclaimers
PerkinElmer Ltd. offers no guarantee regarding the operation or performance of any third-
party pre-amplifiers and detectors used in conjunction with the Spectrum Series Right-hand
External Beam Option.
Warnings and Safety Information
Electrical safety
Fitting the external beam port window requires you to open the main cover of the
spectrometer.
WARNING
Switch off the mains power supply to the spectrometer, wait 60 seconds,
and disconnect the power cable before you open the cover of the
spectrometer. This makes sure that you are safe from electrical shock
and laser radiation.
Any pre-amplifier attached to the Right-hand External Beam Option can obtain power from
the instrument; no separate power supply is required. However, the instrument has no
provision for powering any other component. If necessary, you must provide a separate
power supply, and ensure that the arrangement meets all the applicable safety standards.
External electromagnetic interference and electromagnetic compatibility
The Right-hand External Beam Option is supplied for use as an experimental test bed. The
user-configurable nature of this product means that PerkinElmer cannot guarantee the level
of immunity to external electromagnetic interference (EMI) or the possibility that the product
may itself cause interference to other nearby equipment. It is therefore the responsibility of
the user to consider Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) issues when selecting a suitable
site for the system and to install any additional EMC protection that may be required for that
location.
WARNING
When used in conjunction with the Right-hand External Beam Option, the
Spectrum or Spectrum Express software cannot provide protection to the
detector. In particular, you should be aware that certain detectors may be
damaged by the high energy from the NIR source. Always fit an
appropriate beam attenuator.
CAUTION
You must ensure that any third-party accessories attached to the
Right-hand External Beam Option are earthed appropriately. The external
accessory bracket provides adequate earthing for any third-party
pre-amplifier attached to it.
