3.4 Mounting Laboratory Test Cuvette to Sensor
The test cuvette is mounted on the refractometer sensor using a 2.5” EPDM sanitary gasket
and clamp. Position the gasket in its seating groove with the lip downward. Now position
the assembled test cuvette with the gasket groove correctly seated on to the gasket (Figure

the clamp adjustment screw.
