Single wavelength readings are:
Absorbance readings: The light absorbed by the sample is
measured in absorbance units.
Transmittance reading (%): Measures the percent of the
Single
original light that passes through the sample and reaches the
Wavelength
detector.
Concentration readings: A concentration factor can be
entered to enable the measured absorbance values to be
converted into concentration values.
In the Multi Wavelength mode, absorbance (Abs) or
percentage transmittance (%T) is measured at up to four
Multi
wavelengths and absorbance differences and absorbance
Wavelength
relationships are calculated. Simple conversions into
concentrations can also be carried out.
A wavelength scan shows how the light from a sample is
absorbed over a defined wavelength spectrum. This function
can be used to determine the wavelength at which the
Wavelength
maximum absorbance value can be measured. The
Scan
absorbance behavior is displayed graphically during the
scan.
The time scan records the absorbance or % transmittance at
