FID Overview . 119
6.
When you hear a "
POP
,” observe the
Signal
level in
mV
as it increases on the screen and remains
greater than the previously noted value.
After the flame is lit, a screen will appear that shows the signal level at the range that you set.
You can also confirm that the flame is lit by holding a shiny object (such as a mirror or small
wrench) over the FID outlet. Condensation forms on the object if flame ignition has occurred.
WARNING
AVERTISSEMENT
The FID outlet is hot! To prevent injury, never
place your hand over the FID outlet.
La sortie FID est chaude! Pour éviter toute
blessure, ne placez jamais votre main sur la
prise FID.
If the Flame Goes Out During a Run
If the flame goes out during a run, the run continues until completion however the data collected is invalid.
When the Clarus GC prepares for the next run, it checks for a flame by running the
Flameout
test. If the
GC detects that the flame is out, it will automatically attempt to ignite it!
NOTE: To prevent condensation from forming on the FID, always turn off the flame (by turning off both the
hydrogen and air gases) before cooling the detector or turning off the Clarus GC.
