Indexing and matching sample vials

GB
Matched sample vials are required to minimise the effects of optical variation from glass vial to
glass vial. Alternatively an indexed single sample vial can be used for every measurement.
Once vial orientation in the sample chamber is located, always use this new orientation mark
for all measurements independent of the white pre-printed triangle mark.

12. Press [Read] key.
13. Note the displayed result.
14. Repeat this procedure until the smallest NTU value is
