CAUTION
• As there may be dust adhering to calibration output, be sure to clean it before
attaching the connector adapter.
• Do not exhale or blow compressed air into the monochromator from the optical
input. Doing so may allow dust or other materials to enter the monochromator,
adversely affecting its optical performance. Also, if debris is adhering to the
optical components inside the monochromator when a strong light source is
input, the monochromator may be damaged.
• When attaching or removing the connector adapter, carefully insert it
perpendicularly to the ferrule so as not to damage the ferrule end.
• Moving the connector adapter to the right or left or inserting it forcefully can
damage the ferrule or the connector adapter.
