SmartLab: Automated Multipurpose X-ray Diffractometer 101
Periodic Maintenance
Perform the following maintenance tasks at regular intervals to maintain the
performance of SmartLab.
Optics maintenance
Multilayer mirror
You must perform re-adjustments following
maintenance of the x-ray generator.
Attenuator correction
You must perform re-adjustments when changing the
wavelength or following maintenance of the x-ray
generator.
HV/PHA adjustment
You must perform re-adjustments when changing the
wavelength to be measured.
Dead-time correction
You must perform dead-time correction
measurements after HV/PHA adjustments.
The characteristics of the detector will change over time. Replacement of the
detector is required when it reaches the end of its service life. However, you can
minimize performance degradation by making the appropriate adjustments.
We recommend performing HV/PHA adjustments and dead-time correction
measurement at periodic intervals.
・ HV/PHA adjustments
・ Dead-time correction measurement
To make these adjustments automatically, select Package Measurement from
the Task menu, then select Maintenance Package measurement under Utility.
For detailed information on measurement procedures, refer to the “CBO
Maintenance Package measurement” Help Topic of the online help section of the
SmartLab Guidance software.
