1.3 HANDLING OF HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES
When developing test sets, Orchidis carefully sees that the tests can be carried out as safely as possible. Some hazards
by dangerous substances, however, cannot always be avoided.
If self-produced tests or solutions are used, the responsibility concerning any risks caused by those tests or soulutions lies
with the user (personal responsibility).
WARNING
Improper handling of certain reagents can cause damage to your health. In any case follow
the safety labels on the packing and the safety instructions of the package insert. Protective
measures specified there have to be followed exactly.
Safety datasheets
The safety datasheets of the chemicals comprise all instructions on safe handling occurring hazards,
preventive actions and actions to take in hazardous situations. Follow these instructions in order to
work safely.
1.4 GENERAL NOTES ON HANDLING
The UviLine instruments are an optical precision meters. Therefore, it should always be handled with care, especially in
mobile use.
Always protect the meter from conditions that could damage the mechanical, optical and electronic components.
Heed the following points especially:
The temperature and humidity during operation and storage must be within the limits specified in chapter
TECHNICAL DATA.
The following influences always have to be avoided with the meter:
– Extreme dust, moisture and wetness
– Exposure to intensive light and heat
– Fumes that are corrosive or contain high concentrations of solvents.
For measuring, the meter must be placed on a flat surface.
Spilled liquid or other material should be removed immediately
If a cell has broken in the cell shaft, the cell shaft should be cleaned immediately
The cell shaft should always be closed when the photometer is not used.
For the instrument to be transported the cell shaft has to be empty.
For mobile used we recommend using the suitable transport case
Always make sure that the instrument is connected on the good voltage. (Between 100 – 240V 50-60Hz)
When dangerous substances for health and environment are used, the laboratory or site rules, where the
instrument is installed must be followed.
Take all the necessary precautions, during the use the instrument, to protect the operator from eventual liquids
leaks or spills or possible radiations (protective gloves, anti-UV radiation glasses , protected clothes, etc)
Keep the sample compartment clean.
The Xenon lamp used in the UviLine 9400C & 9600 emits UV radiation.
Install the instrument in a ventilated area because it is likely to generate ozone, which, beyond the limits below,
can harm health.
Exposure average value = 100 ppb
Exposure limits value = 200 ppb
All operations made inside the instrument, must be done by AQUALABO ANALYSE or by AQUALABO
ANALYSE’s authorized technicians.
1.5 PACKING
The spectrophotometer is sent out in a protective transport packing. Keep the original packing including the inner packing
to protect the instrument against hard shocks if it has to be transported.The original packing is also required for the proper
return of the instrument if it has to be repaired. Note that damage caused by improper transport voids all warranty claims.

LPHANUMERIC KEYBOARD
Numerals, letters, punctuation marks and special characters are entered with the alphanumeric keypad of the meter or
using an external keyboard.
1.8.4.1 Characters sets
The following characters are available:
• Numerals (0 ... 9)
• Letters (A ... Z) and (a ... z).
• Punctuation marks (. and -)
• Special characters ° / + ∆, Σ, µ, #, %, : et ()
1.8.4.2 Command principle
Entering characters is always possible if there is an input field on the display.
The numerals and characters (expect for the small letters) assigned to the keys of the alphanumeric keypad are printed on
the keys.
Example: With the <2/ABC> key you can enter the following characters: 2, A, B, C, a, b, c.
Select the required character by pressing the key several times (similar to a mobile phone). When pressing a key that is
assigned to several characters once, the respective numeral appears first.
To enter a numeral, one key pressing is always sufficient.
When pressing the key for the first time a line pops up that displays all characters possible with this key. The currently
selected character is highlighted.
A character is taken over in the input field if
• the character is highlighted for more than one second,
• the character is confirmed with <START·ENTER>,
• Another alphanumeric key is pressed.
Remark
During mere number entries (such as entering a wavelength), the keys of the alphanumeric keypad are assigned to the
respective numeral only. Each pressing key directly enters the numeral (like a pocket calculator).

10 SPECIAL/ MULTI-WAVELENGTHS
1.31 BASIC INFORMATION
In the Special / Multi wavelengths mode of the UviLine Series, you can carry out measurements with special methods and
functions. You can use the following functions for these methods:
• Measurements at different wavelengths
• Use of procedure variables.Procedure variables provide a value that has to be entered prior to each
measurement on the photometer (e.g. volume, pH value or temperature)
• Check whether a value meets a condition. With a condition you can check a value for validity (e.g. absorbance
value, procedure variable or the result of a formula).
• Formula editor for the convenient programming of any user-defined methods
1.32 METHOD PROGRAMMING
Remark
For multi wavelength methods, you can use the method numbers 2001 to 2499. All special methods can also be selected
in the method list of the concentration mode.
The creation of a user-defined method is done in the following steps:
• Enter the general method data

Csv-files of these modes can be re-imported and viewed on the
photometer.
As the location for the PC readable files (*.csv) to be stored, it is possible to select for each export either the
spectrophotometer (Internal DataB folder) or an external memory (USB memory).
Later it is possible to transmit the files stored in the photometer (Internal DataB folder) to a connected PC or an external
memory (USB memory).
It is possible to transmit to a USB memory either individual files with measuring data or all files stored in the Internal
DataB folder.
1.54 INSTRUCTIONS ON USING USB MEMORY DEVICES
The safety of data stored on USB memory devices depends on the quality of the memory device and the data
transmission.
Data is stored partly or not at all if for example:
• The power supply of the external memory device is interrupted during the write process, or
• The external memory device is prematurely disconnected from the photometer during the data backup.
To prevent a data loss we recommend the following:
• Save all data internally in the photometer first.
• After performing a backup leave the USB memory device connected to the photometer for some time.
• Check whether the stored data is complete, e.g. on a PC.
• Use the USB memory device for data transport but not for permanent data storage.
1.55 MEASURMENT DATASETS

ESULT RECORDING
1.55.3.1 Manual recording
After each measurement, it is possible to store the measurement data manually with the <STORE> key. It is stored in the
measurement data memory. The memory symbol in the header indicates that the measurement data displayed on
the screen is ready to be stored. With the measuring modes, Concentration, Absorbance / % Transmission, and Multi
wavelengths there is the additional option to automatically store all new measured values at the time of the measurement
When storing manually, an input field for the identification (ID) appears after pressing the <STORE> key. Here it is
possible to enter an individual combination of alphanumeric characters for later easier identification of the measurement
datasets. 30 digits are available for this.
WARNING:
In « Absorption / % transmission » mode, the « AutoStore » function is not operational for data acquired during this
measurement.
If the operator wants to store data, he has to use <STORE> key. So, all results acquired during last measurement will be
stored under the names given by the operator.
1.55.3.2 Automatic recording with « AutoStore » function
- Press on F1 key [Setup].
- Select « AutoStore » with « » and « » keys and confirm with <START ENTER> key.
The symbol at the end of « AutoStore » indicates that the function is active. If this function is not active, it means that

Remark
For the measuring modes, Concentration, Absorbance / % Transmission, and Multi wavelengths, it is possible to save
every measured value automatically with (AutoStore) function.
All automatically saved measurement datasets are given the label "AutoStore". If the same measurement dataset is
manually saved using (<STORE>) key, the "AutoStore" label is overwritten by ID code given by the operator.
The AutoStore setting is valid for all three measuring modes, Concentration, Absorbance / % Transmission, and Multi

16 MAINTENANCE
1.67 LAMP CHANGING
In this chapter only the change of the UviLine 9300 halogen lamp is explained. Indeed, UV-Vis UviLine spectrophotometer works with
xenon lamp which time life approaches the one of the apparatus. Any time, if it prematurely stops working, then contact AQUALABO
ANALYSE servicing.
The tungsten halogen lamp is a wear part with a certain average service life. It has to be replaced if defective. The spectrophotometer
has a service hour counter for the lamp module.
NOTE
The replacement lamp is readily assembled as a lamp module and optically adjusted in the factory. Therefore, treat it with utmost
care. Fingerprints on the glass will shorten the service life of the lamp. Do not touch the bulb of the new lamp module with bare
fingers. If you have touched the bulb inadvertently, carefully clean it with a clean cloth soaked in alcohol.
The halogen lamp is behind a protection cover (Aluminum sheet) at the rear part of the spectrophotometer. To change it, proceed as
follows:
WARNING
The lamp becomes very hot during operation. Do not touch the hot lamp because it can cause burns! The lamp should cool
down for approx. 10 minutes before it is exchanged.
1. Switch off the spectrophotometer and disconnect it from the main power.
2. Remove the two screws (1) and remove the lamp protection cover (2).
3. Disconnect the electrical plug connection (3). Disconnecting it might take a lot of effort.
4. Unscrew the two knurled-head screws (4) and remove the defective lamp module (5).
5. Fix the new lamp module with the knurled-head screws. When doing so, the metal-plated side of the PCB
must point outward, toward the knurled-head screws.
6. Reconnect the power supply cable.
7. Reinstall the protection lamp cover.
8. Reset the service hour counter for the lamp module.
