The Intensity Test is a test to measure the intensity of the lamps and the transmission performance ("intensity") of the optics.
Follow these steps
Install the diagnostic cell in the detector.
Turn on the detector lamps (one or both) that you want to test.
Run the test from the Chromeleon software. Refer to the Chromeleon Help.
Depends on the test result:
Test result | Action |
---|---|
Passed | Reinstall the flow cell of your application. |
Failed | 1. Check the failure reason for the intensity test in the Instrument Audit Trail:
2. If the test fails with the new lamp, the optics may be defective. Contact Thermo Fisher Technical Support. |
