Models 947, 948 and 960 Leak Detectors Operations and Service Manual
xxiv
Spectrometer Tube
CAUTION
The spectrometer tube operates at a very high vacuum
produced by the high vacuum pump. Service of the
spectrometer tube requires that this vacuum be vented
to the atmosphere.
CAUTION
Do not use grease or other substance on O-rings that
will come in contact with the spectrometer tube.
CAUTION
If the spectrometer tube magnet comes in contact with a
magnetic surface, the magnet may lose its field strength,
causing the spectrometer tube to lose sensitivity.
WARNING
Store the ion source in a cool, dry area in a tightly
sealed container. Wash hands thoroughly after handling
the ion source, especially before smoking or eating.
Pumps
WARNING
To avoid injury, use proper lifting techniques when
moving pumps. Your system may have pumps that
require two people to move them safely.
WARNING
The vacuum pumps are also compressors; incorrect
operation may be dangerous. Study the “Installation and
Operation Manual” enclosed with your pump before
starting pumps.
