1. PURPOSES AND FEATURES
1.1 Intended uses of this product
Lens Spectral Reflectivity Measurement USPM3-100/USPM3-200 is intended to measure
the reflectance of a coated plane. Through easy operations, the reflectance of a subject
is calculated in comparison to that of the reference sample.
1.2 Features
This device has the following useful features:
Short measurement time
Use of high-speed spectrometry based on a flat field grating and line sensor enables
the measurement to be finished within a short time.
Cutout of rear surface reflection noise
The device employs zonal illumination to cut out rear surface reflection noise.
Therefore, it allows to accurately measure the reflectance of the front surface only,
without the need for antireflection treatment on the rear surface or any other
countermeasure.
Reflectance measurement of minute area
The objective forms a spot of approximately 60 [μm] (when the 10x objective is
employed) on the surface under measurement. This allows to measure also lens
curvatures and coating unevenness.
Flexible comparison measurement
Since the reflectances of different comparison measurement masters can be set up
as reference values, the device can be applied to comparison measurements with
flexibility.
The product is intended to measure spectral characteristics,
including reflectance. Do not use for any other purpose.

2.2. How to carry and install the product
Keep the following cautions in mind when installing the product:
(1) Remove the main unit, cables and accessories from the shipping box.
(2) Check whether all of the items listed in [Packaged Items] are in place.
(3) Remove the packing materials and check whether there is any visible damage to
the contents.
(4) Set up the main unit, the control box, the light source power supply and computer
into a place that satisfies the installation conditions.
Always firmly hold the base when carrying or installing the product.
Otherwise there is a risk of failure.
Base
Always use two or more persons to unpack, install or carry the
device, which weighs about 20 kg. Handling the device alone may
cause injury.
Do not allow any impact to occur to the device when unpacking or
installing it. Damage to optical parts or undesired effects to the
sample adjustment feature of the product may result, causing failure
or incorrectness.
Avoid installing the product in an unstable place or any place with
strong vibrations. There is a risk of the unit overturning or falling, or
injury. Take the usage conditions into consideration when installing
it.
Do not place equipment so that it is difficult to pull out power supply
cord from rear side receptacle of Control Box and Light Source
Power Supply

2.3. How to clean
(1) Use a commercial air blaster to blow dust off the lens and then wipe it softly with a
sheet of lens cleaning tissue (or washed gauze).
Wipe off any fingerprints or oils with a sheet of lens cleaning tissue dampened with
a little absolute alcohol.
(2) Avoid using any organic solvents in the cleaning of any parts other than the lens.
Wipe off heavy dirt, if any, with a soft cloth slightly dampened with diluted neutral
detergent.
Absolute alcohol is highly flammable. Never place the device near
an open flame when using absolute alcohol, and do not handle any
electrical device switches that may cause ignition. In addition, make
sure there is sufficient ventilation in the room. Before conducting
maintenance on the lamp house, wait until it is cool enough to
touch.
