MODEL 6300 VISIBLE RANGE SPECTROPHOTOMETER OPERATING MANUAL 630 026.
6300/REV B/12-96 SAFETY Please read this information carefully prior to installing or using this equipment. 1. The unit described in this manual is designed to be operated only by trained personnel. Any adjustments, maintenance and repair must be carried out as defined in this manual, by a person qualified to be aware of the hazards involved.
6300/REV B/12-96 6300 SPECTROPHOTOMETER OPERATING MANUAL CONTENTS SECTION 1 INTRODUCTION Instrument Description 1.1 Instrument Specification 1.2 SECTION 2 INSTALLATION Unpacking 2.1 Installation 2.2 Displays 2.3 Controls 2.4 Outputs 2.5 SECTION 3 OPERATION Initial Set-Up 3.
SECTION 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 INSTRUMENT DESCRIPTION The Model 6300 is a microprocessor controlled Visible Range Spectrophotometer covering the wave- length range of 320 to 950nm with a 10nm bandwidth.
SECTION 2 INSTALLATION 2.1 UNPACKING Remove the Model 6300 from the packaging and ensure the following items are present: 1. Model 6300 Spectrophotometer 2. Mains Cable 3. Pack 100 disposable Cuvettes (060 084) 4. Optional Accessories (as ordered) Any shortages or damage should be reported immediately to the Manufacturer or your local Distributor.
2.3 DISPLAYS 1. Primary display area - Transmission, Absorbance, Concentration 2. Primary display adjust annunciator 3. Secondary display area - Wavelength, Factor 4. Primary display units 5. Secondary display adjust annunciator 6. Operation with PC 7.
2.4 CONTROLS 1. used to adjust values on the selected display 2. used to move horizontally between menu options 3. used to select the displayed menu option 4. initiates a calibration routine 5. Print key. Provides a printout of the current reading with an incremental sample number.
2.5 INPUTS/OUTPUTS Fig. 2.5.1 Rear Panel Layout 1. LAMP ACCESS PANEL This panel allows the user to gain access to the tungsten halogen lamp when replacement is necessary. NOTE: The Lamp Access Panel and all ventilation slots must not be covered or obstructed at any time.
SECTION 3 OPERATION 3.1 INITIAL SET-UP NOTE: If the unit is in continuous use it is recommended that it should be left switched on to obtain maximum lamp life. Do not open the sample chamber door during initialisation. Connect the unit to the correct mains supply and switch on.
7 The complimentary colour method of selecting wavelength may not be applicable in all situations, perhaps because the solution has no distinct colour, or the solution is of a complex nature and the absorbing species of interest is not the predominant colour.
8 Concentration Mode This mode is selected by moving the cursor to the CONC menu option using the LEFT or RIGHT arrow keys. The primary display will show the concentration, with ppm, mgl -1 , gl -1 , M, % or blank units. The wavelength can be adjusted using the UP and DOWN arrow keys.
3.3 GOOD PRACTICE GUIDELINES 1. For optimum performance a calibration routine should be carried out at the beginning and end of every sample batch. 2. To ensure accurate results are obtained the sample area lid should be kept in the closed position during measurement.
SECTION 4 MAINTENANCE 4.1 GENERAL The 6300 has been designed to give optimum performance with minimum maintenance. It is only necessary to keep the external surfaces clean and free from dust. The sample area should always be kept clean and any accidental spillage should be wiped away immediately.
Fig. 4.2.1 Lamp Fitting 6. Close the lamp access panel and re-tighten the thumbscrew. NOTE: It is essential that only the specified replacement lamp should be used. Accuracy of optical alignment and performance cannot be guaranteed using alternative manufactured lamps.
SECTION 6 INTERFACING Serial Interface The Model 6300 has a bi-directional RS232 interface set to: 1200 baud 7 data bits odd parity 1 stop bit The 25 way D connector allows a standard one-to-one interconnection lead to be used, as supplied with the 40 column printer.
ASCII Fxxxx.x<CR> Sets the concentration factor to xxxx.x. For example: F1000<CR> will set the factor to 1000. Note <CR> is an ASCII carriage return character. The last three commands provide an output which can readily be incorporated into most spreadsheet software packages.
EC Declaration of Conformity Jenway Model 6300 Spectrophotometer complies with the following European Standards: EN 50081-1:1992 Electromagnetic compatibility - Generic emission standard EN 50082-1:19.
An important point after buying a device IBM 6300 (or even before the purchase) is to read its user manual. We should do this for several simple reasons:
If you have not bought IBM 6300 yet, this is a good time to familiarize yourself with the basic data on the product. First of all view first pages of the manual, you can find above. You should find there the most important technical data IBM 6300 - thus you can check whether the hardware meets your expectations. When delving into next pages of the user manual, IBM 6300 you will learn all the available features of the product, as well as information on its operation. The information that you get IBM 6300 will certainly help you make a decision on the purchase.
If you already are a holder of IBM 6300, but have not read the manual yet, you should do it for the reasons described above. You will learn then if you properly used the available features, and whether you have not made any mistakes, which can shorten the lifetime IBM 6300.
However, one of the most important roles played by the user manual is to help in solving problems with IBM 6300. Almost always you will find there Troubleshooting, which are the most frequently occurring failures and malfunctions of the device IBM 6300 along with tips on how to solve them. Even if you fail to solve the problem, the manual will show you a further procedure – contact to the customer service center or the nearest service center
