Replacing the Multi-Wavelength UV/Vis Detector
Lamps

This section explains how to replace the deuterium lamp or tungsten lamp inside the

multi-wavelength UV/Vis detector. The replacement lamp unit includes the lamp,

cable connector, and plug. The lamp is replaced as a unit.

Caution:

It is strongly suggested that you wear gloves when you replace the

lamps. Do not touch the lamp glass with bare hands, as oils from your skin will

degrade the lamp over time.
