Mass Spec Bench User Guide

Step 2. Prepare the pump tray

The Mass Spec Bench is designed to accommodate up to two pumps in the 
enclosure. The pumps must be oriented correctly to ensure proper air flow. 
Improper air flow can damage the pumps due to overheating.

Depending upon the configuration, an LC/MS instrument can have a curved 
fitting on the end of the vacuum hose. If the hose reaches the pump, the 
vacuum hose is properly attached.

Note that these instructions assume a new instrument installation. If this 
installation is for an installed instrument, the instrument must be vented 
PRIOR to installing the vacuum pumps inside the enclosure.

1

Open the cardboard box which contains the pump tray.

2

Remove the pump tray surface.

To avoid personal injury when you lift the pump tray:

• Use two people to lift the tray

• Be careful not to pinch your fingers.
