2: Installing the LIBS System

LIBS2000+ Hardware Set-up

Procedure

1. Remove the LIBS2000+ components and laser from their packaging.

2. Place the sample chamber and the rack of spectrometers on a clean, flat surface.

3. If you have purchased the LIBS Imaging Module, place it on top of the sample chamber.

4. Mount the laser head on top of the LIBS Imaging Module (if purchased), or directly on top of

the sample chamber if you do not have an imaging module. A mounting bracket is attached to
the laser head with steel rods to facilitate mounting and laser alignment into the sample
chamber.

5. Insert rods from the laser through the imaging module and into the sample chamber for firm

support. The laser rests flush on top of the imaging module (or sample chamber, if you do not
have an imaging module).
