(see Figure 3-2); and 5. Lamp Compartment (see Figure 3-4).
Reflectance Port
The Reflectance Port is the interface for materials which are to be
sampled for Reflectance Measurements. The System is equipped
with the Large Area Aperture (32 mm) and Optical Baffle as
standard items. An optional Small Area (11mm) lens barrel and
aperture can be purchased and mounted in place of the standard
aperture, when smaller sample measurements are desired.
