    Abstract: There are procedures typically used in auto body shops to assist in matching a proposed paint mix with that on undamaged portions of the vehicle. A test panel is taped to a stick and arranged next to the panel to be matched at a couple of angles. The present procedures are unrepeatable and often utilize two individuals. According to embodiments of the present disclosure, a wand has a test panel portion with embedded magnets. The test panel is attracted to the test panel portion via the magnets and the wand holds onto the vehicle panel also via the magnets. The lower side of the test panel portion that sits against the vehicle has at least two flat surfaces at different angles so that the wand can be placed on the surface of the vehicle, or other surface, to assess the paint match from the different angles.

    Abstract: A measuring cell for a gas analysis spectrometer has an inner chamber for a sample gas to be analyzed and an inlet and an outlet which are connected thereto. A traversing optical path for a measuring beam is formed in the inner chamber. The measuring cell is tubular, the inlet and the outlet are arranged at opposite ends, and the inner chamber of the measuring cell has a cross-sectional shape that is monotonic over the length of the tube and which has an oval-shape at the start, which disappears toward the end. That special shape results in fast gas exchange and thus high dynamics, even with larger measuring cells, which have high sensitivity due to the long optical paths thereof. Two characteristics which until now appeared to be conflicting are thereby combined.

    Abstract: A sample cell for IR spectrophotometric analysis of a liquid sample is provided. The sample cell comprises two substantially parallel transparent plates enclosing a cavity for holding the liquid sample, and a temperature control loop for controlling a temperature of the liquid sample in the cavity. The temperature control loop comprises at least one temperature sensor for measuring a temperature in or close to the cavity, at least one heating element for increasing a temperature of the liquid sample, and control means, coupled to the temperature sensor and the heating element for controlling the heating element in dependence of the temperature in or close to the cavity. The heating element comprises at least one heating foil which is attached to or thermally coupled to a first one of the transparent plates in such a way to allow an IR light beam to pass through the transparent plates and the cavity without being hindered by the heating foil.
