Smart Purge Kit
– This kit adds enhanced purging capability to
your spectrometer. When you open the sample compartment cover
or its sliding door, Smart Purge automatically increases the purge
gas flow rate for a short time. This keeps water vapor, carbon
dioxide and other unwanted gases out of the spectrometer while you
install or remove a sample. You can then collect spectra without
waiting for proper purge to be restored.
Uninterruptable power supply
– An uninterruptable power supply
reduces the chance of a system shutdown if power is lost.
How to cable
an accessory
When you install an accessory in the sample compartment, you may
need to connect one or more cables from the accessory to connectors
on the rear wall of the compartment. You may also need to attach
cables from other peripherals (such as computers, custom controllers
or power supplies) to the accessory or from the accessory to the
connectors on the front of the spectrometer. The instructions that came
with the accessory contain specific information about connecting that
accessory.
Pass-through connectors
Your spectrometer may be equipped with pass-through connectors
for use with special accessories. These connectors allow you to make
accessory cable connections through the spectrometer. This
eliminates the need to run cables through the seal on the sample
compartment cover or out the top of the sample compartment.
Caution
Improper or unsafe cabling can cause damage to your accessory and
create a safety hazard. Only qualified persons should cable a custom
accessory using these connectors. Thermo Electron is not
responsible for damage or injury resulting from improper or unsafe
cabling.
S
To use the pass-through connectors, connect the accessory inside the
sample compartment and connect the external power or
communications peripheral to the corresponding pass-through
connector on the front of the spectrometer.
