Abstract
A method for aligning a reaction ring in an analyzer system using a gauge vertical reaction ring comprising at least one end slot includes inserting a light beam gauge into an aperture operable to hold the light beam gauge at a height corresponding to a photometer included in the analyzer system. The gauge vertical reaction ring is rotated on the reaction ring until the light beam gauge engages the end slot to confirm alignment of the reaction ring with the photometer.
