iCAP 6000 Series Pre-Installation Manual v4.2
1-1
Chapter 1
Introduction
This manual is designed to help ensure that your iCAP 6000 Series
ICP-OES Spectrometer will be installed efficiently and will be able
to meet your requirements quickly and completely.
It will minimise installation time if the services and facilities detailed
here are available before the equipment is delivered.
Properly installed and maintained, your system will provide you with
years of reliable service. Please inform your local Thermo Fisher
organisation what aspects of support are most important to you and a
tailored agreement can be provided to prolong the life of your
instrument.
This manual describes the environment and the resources required at
the installation site of the iCAP 6000 Series ICP-OES Spectrometer
and associated equipment. Safety requirements for the installation are
also detailed.
WARNING:
The installation of all services must comply with the
appropriate rules and regulations required by the local authorities
responsible for those services in the workplace, at the installation
site. An installation engineer is not responsible for the fitting, or
compliance of the facilities, or services.
The choice of an operating site for the instrument will be influenced
by local considerations for example, ease of access and availability
of electrical power.
Logical planning of the installation can save both time and money.
The objective of this manual is to provide information that will
enable the best site to be chosen and to highlight the essential
requirements.
If further information or advice is required, contact your local
Thermo Fisher organisation. A list of Thermo Fisher organisations
and agents can be found on

.
Installation of the system will include some familiarisation training;
however comprehensive method development and software training
will require additional training that should be ordered separately.
