074-471-P1E HAPSITE ER Operating Manual 27 / 436
The diaphragm pump consists of four stages. The diaphragm pump draws the gas
from the exhaust of the compound pump and sufficiently compresses exhaust gas in
order to discharge the exhaust into the atmosphere.
7.9 Electronic Systems
The electronic systems in HAPSITE ER are considered in four groups:
Mass Spectrometer
Control
The mass spectrometer control electronics include the programmable DC and RF
power supplies for the mass selector, DC power supplies for the filament, electron
multiplier, ion pump, and A/D converter for the signal from the electron multiplier.
Gas Chromatograph
Control
The Gas Chromatograph (GC) control circuitry includes the power supplies for the
solenoid valves, ovens and heated inlet line. It also controls the logic for all the valves
and heaters of the GC system.
Main Processor The main processor is supported by solid state memory and is located in the central
electronics assembly. The main processor controls all the other electronic sub-
assemblies for routine operation.
Interfaces There are several input/output devices within HAPSITE ER. These include the front
panel touchscreen, keypad and display, USB drive, crossover cable connection,
wireless connection, probe, power and logic connections to the Service Module, HSS,
SituProbe, TDSS, and SPME accessory.
7.10 Software Systems
HAPSITE ER operates with two software systems.
• Control software accepts inputs from the touchscreen, keypad and other
interfaces. It commands the operation and sequencing of all systems and
subsystems. The control software allows a method to be started from the front
panel. Design or modifications of a method require the use of ER IQ™ software on
an external laptop.
• Analysis software analyzes the data from the mass spectrometer, accesses the
libraries as required, and displays the results of the analyses on the front panel.
Additionally, HAPSITE ER application software, ER IQ, is a Windows XP, Windows
2000,Windows 7, and Windows 10 based system for laptop use. ER IQ is used to
design and modify methods, view data, analyze results, and generate reports. The
laptop is linked to HAPSITE ER via a specific crossover cable or wireless connection.
This linkage permits data and methods to be uploaded from HAPSITE ER. It also
allows for new or modified methods to be downloaded to HAPSITE ER.
The specific Windows version supported is based on the specific HAPSITE ER
hardware version and date of manufacture.
