Fitting the extraction cone to the ion block
Required materials
• Chemical-resistant, powder-free gloves
• Combined 2.5-mm Allen wrench and cone extraction tool
To fit the extraction cone onto the ion block:
1. Fit the extraction cone handle insulator onto the extraction cone handle.
2. Fit the extraction cone onto the ion block.
3. Rotate the 2 PEEK extraction cone retainer clips to secure the extraction
cone, then use the combined 2.5-mm Allen wrench and cone extraction
tool to tighten the retainer clip securing screws.
Fitting the ion block assembly to the source assembly
Required materials
• Chemical-resistant, powder-free gloves
• Combined 2.5-mm Allen wrench and cone extraction tool
Warning:
To avoid personal contamination with biohazards or
toxic materials, and to avoid spreading contamination to
uncontaminated surfaces, wear clean, chemical-resistant,
powder-free gloves when working with the ion block.
Warning:
To avoid personal contamination with biohazards or
toxic materials, and to avoid spreading contamination to
uncontaminated surfaces, wear clean, chemical-resistant,
powder-free gloves when working with the source components.
Warning:
To avoid puncture wounds, take great care while
working with the source enclosure open if one or both of these
conditions apply:
• An ESI probe is fitted (the probe tip is sharp).
• A corona pin is fitted (the pin tip is sharp).
