SECTION 8 – Maintenance and Service

8.1

ROUTINE MAINTENANCE

Ensure the external surfaces of the unit are clean and free from dust. The sample area should
always be kept clean and any accidental spillage should be wiped away immediately. To give
added protection when not in use, the unit should be disconnected from the mains supply and
covered with the optional dust cover.

The only routine maintenance which maybe required is the replacement of the light source. The
replacement lamp is available from your local distributor or Bibby Scientific (refer to section 7.2 for
spare part codes). Only genuine replacement lamps should be used. Similar lamps may have
different filament configurations or be wavelength restricted for domestic or commercial use and
will give rise to errors if used.
