Chromato-Vue Cabinets

Introduction

The UVP Chromato-Vue Viewing Cabinets provide a wide range of cabinet models and ultraviolet wavelength
configurations for use in laboratory or industrial applications. This Operations Manual covers the following cabinet
models: C-65, C-75, C-70G and C-71. These cabinets are designed for long life and rugged use in a wide range of
applications. The bottom panel of each cabinet is removable and the cabinet can be placed over samples or a
transilluminator. The lightweight access curtain allows for easy entry and blocks out external light. All cabinets are
manufactured of durable lightweight plastic. The view port combines a comfortable soft rubber, which can
accommodate eyeglasses, and a contrast control filter, which blocks the ultraviolet radiation.

The C-65 comes with a built-in white light. Ultraviolet lamps for use with this cabinet are purchased separately. Other
models mentioned above are fitted with ultraviolet light sources. Further information is provided below on each
model.

Operating Instructions

control filter. To remove shipping material from inside of cabinet, raise curtain by the lever on side of cabinet. Unwrap
bottom panel and insert into cabinet. The rolled edge of the panel should face down in front. Place unwrapped contrast
control filter into the open area on cabinet top. The unwrapped eyepiece should be placed over the rim of the cabinet
opening so that the nose notch faces forward.

Plug the power cord of the cabinet into a convenient wall receptacle. Cabinet is now ready for viewing.

your Chromato-Vue Cabinet, remove the bottom panel from inside the cabinet and then place the cabinet over the
transilluminator.

models, please read Safety Precautions before using this equipment.
