3-60 Preparing the Detector
Before you begin
Recommendation: To ensure accurate results, use a 10-mm path length
quartz cuvette and matched pairs (from the same manufacturing lot) of quartz
cuvettes for your zero and sample scans.
Before beginning a scan using the cuvette:
1. Flush the flow cell with the eluent you are going to scan.
2. To ensure a clear and clean cuvette, wipe the clear portion of the cuvette
with low-lint, nonabrasive tissue wipes.
Cuvette scanning procedure
To begin a cuvette scan:
1. Remove the detector front left panel cover.
2. To remove the cuvette holder, slide it toward you.
