Hardware overview
Cuvette segments
Each segment holds 10 cuvettes.
Handling cuvettes
Cuvettes are supplied in boxes containing cuvette sets. Each set contains a number of
cuvette segments. This way, the cuvettes can easily be handled without touching
them.
Loading and removing cuvettes is guided by the system software. When handling is
required, the rotor moves the cuvette segments to the cuvette port, where you can
load or remove them. You handle one segment at a time. Cuvette segments are placed
in the cuvette ring of the rotor.
