It is approved for indoor usage only, namely in laboratory and warehouse environments. A typical field of application is the incoming goods inspection. 2.2 Technical feature rs io There are two different types of measuring tips which are interchangeable. These measuring tips can be used for measuring liquid and solid samples being filled in a vial or in a plastic bag, in a barrel, for example. With BRAVO, the samples are measured in a noncontact way. The BRAVO analyzer is characterized by the following technical features: Duo LaserTM excitation ve The BRAVO analyzer is equipped with two laser diodes which emit radiation in the wavelength range between 700nm and 1100nm. This dual laser excitation provides for a very high sensitivity across the entire spectral range. This in turn ensures a very high degree of unambiguous sample identification. Fluorescence mitigation by sequentially shifted excitation (SSETM)1 ft Normally, the Raman spectroscopic measurement technique is not suitable for samples which tend to fluoresce when being exposed to laser radiation because sample fluorescence can yield a much more intense signal than the Raman scatter of the sample, masking any Raman bands in the spectrum. ra The patented SSETM technique, however, allows for obtaining pure Raman spectra even in the presence of intense fluorescence by exciting the sample with a sequentially shifted laser radiation. Due to the implemented fluorescence mitigation technique SSETM, BRAVO can also be used for measuring samples which tend to fluoresce when being exposed to laser radiation. Inbuilt wavenumber calibration The automated wavenumber calibration ensures highly reproducible measurement results and an unmatched wavenumber accuracy. They are crucial for a raw material identification in a validated environment. Automatic recognition of the measuring tip BRAVO recognizes automatically the currently installed type of measuring tip. In addition, this information is stored automatically in the measurement records. 1. US patent 8,570,507, other patents pending BRAVO Analyzer - User Manual 17 General information 2 In case, the user has explicitly defined a certain type of measuring tip for a certain sample when setting up a library, than BRAVO automatically prompts the user to use the previously defined tip for measuring the sample in question. This special feature prevents the user from measuring a certain sample using the wrong measuring tip. The design of the measuring tip allows for an easy interchange and ensures always a precise positioning. Wireless and wired data transmission 2.3 rs io BRAVO is equipped by default with an integrated WLAN device. This technical feature allows for a wireless data exchange between the BRAVO analyzer and a PC station via a wireless network. If demanded, the wireless connectivity can be deactivated. Alternatively, a wired data transmission via an Ethernet network is also possible by using the optional docking station.

BRAVO Analyzer - User Manual 57 Troubleshooting 7 7.2.7 Problems regarding the detected spectral signal These kinds of problems become apparent as follows, for example: • No spectrum has been acquired. • The spectral intensity of the spectrum is too weak. • Unexpected spectrum has been acquired. Solutions No sample in the sample position during the measurement. Put the sample in the measurement position and repeat the measurement. rs io Possible causes Note: In case you verify samples which are filled in vials, place the vial in the holder of the measuring tip. In case you verify samples which are filled in bags, press the bag against the laser exit opening of the measuring tip. Entrapped air in the vial i.e. entrapped air between vial and sample powder. When inserting the vial in the vial holder, make sure that the label on the vial is not in the beampath of the laser beam. ve The barcode label on the vial or bag prevents the laser beam from reaching the sample. Shake the vial to remove the air inclusions. Problems regarding wireless data transfer 7.2.8 ra ft When pressing the bag against the laser exit opening of the measuring tip, make sure that the exiting laser beam will impinge on the sample and not on the label. Possible causes Solutions Interferences of the WiFi network caused by microwaves etc. Eliminate the source of interference. WiFi signal strength is to weak at your current location. Move to a different location where the WiFi signal strength is higher. If the above listed solutions do not solve the problem, contact your administrator who is responsible for the wireless network at your site. 58 BRAVO Analyzer - User Manual Bruker Optik GmbH Troubleshooting 7 7.2.9 Problems regarding the docking station You have put the BRAVO analyzer into docking station, but the blue lamp at the docking station does not light up.
