Notice:
The light source of the instrument must be preheated for 10 minutes. It
can start measurement after preheating.
Please ensure that the battery is charged amply before using the
instrument. The charging time should not be too long.
Using the touch pen to operate on the touch screen, avoid using edge tool
to destroy the touch screen, avoid pressing the touch screen forcibly.
Avoid blocking the exhaust fan, avoid working in the high temperature
environment.
In order to avoid destroying the instrument, strong impact should be
avoided.
Instrument should be placed in a stable working platform. Strong vibration
source should be avoided during the measurement.
Take some safety measure arrest the thunder when installing antenna in
the wild.
It’s forbidden to absorb the magnet of the antenna on the object with
electricity.
Instrument should not work in that environment where the humidity is
higher than 85%.

Chapter 1 Introduction
1.1 Uses
T3 is a small portable quick-test instrument, whose measurement speed is very
fast. The dimension of the instrument is small, and it’s light. It is convenient for
carrying and manually operation. It can not only be used in the lab, but also
special for the wild environment monitor and on-site real time detection. The
instrument is provides with the function of spectrum scanning, kinetics,
quantitative measurement and photometric measurement, so the application
field of it is so wide.
The measuring method is based on the Lamber-Beer’s Law, which is found on
the absorption to light of the material.
1.2 Structures
The T3 system is consist of main unit, cell holders, test tube holders and fiber
probe.
1.3 Characters

perfect software and hardware platform for the functions implementations of
the instrument. For the convenience of user's operation, extra large display
touch-screen is used for display.
The monochrometer adopts concave plate holographic grating made by French
JY company integrated with CCD ILX511 detector made by Japanese Sony
Company featuring with high wavelength accuracy and low stray light.
The light source adopts gathering micro tungsten lamp with the characteristics
of small volume, stable illumination and long life time, which can meet the
special requirements for portable devices.
1.4 Functions and configuration
Spectrum Scanning, Photometric Measurement, Kinetics, food analysis,
water analysis, video player and other user-defined functions (quantitative
measurement).
The main unit can be operated stand alone, save and read the data and
print directly.
High-Lattice touch screen. It can be operated by touch pen or mouse.
Communicate by the USB and RS232 port, LAN communication is reserved.
