Fifth revision of European Pharmacopeia stipulates also checking the photometrical accuracy of the spectrophotometer at a wavelength in the visible region (430 nm) besides the checking in the UV region. The testing has to be carried out by means of a solution of 0.06% potassium dichromate dissolved in perchloric acid. The absorbance value of the filter is determined at a wavelength of 430 nm and is specified in the certificate. It should be noted that the measurement is carried out with the filter 667-UV14 (0.01 N perchloric acid) in the reference beam path. Measured values of the reference filter are separately displayed.
