Switch off the instrument/plasma
Information
Leave the instrument in standby mode whenever possible (main switch set to "On".
This ensures good long-term stability during the measurement).
To switch off the instrument, proceed as follows:
1. Flush the sample introduction system for approx. 10 minutes with a suitable
blank solution, e.g., distilled water for aqueous applications.
This avoids crystallization in the sample introduction system.
2. Select the “Solid State Generator” dialog in the instrument control parameter
dialog window. Switch off the plasma by clicking the "Plasma" button or
press the "Plasma Off“ button (blue button) on the right side of the instrument.
The plasma extinguishes.
3. Press the “X” button in the upper right-hand corner of the application window
in order to end the instrument’s software program (ICP ANALYZER PRO).
The program is terminated.
4. Select the dialog item "Shut down" in the “Start” menu of the operating system
and confirm the dialog box.
The computer is switched off.
5. Close the external valves of the argon supply system.
6. Loosen the pressure clamps of the peristaltic pump and depressurize the
pump tubing by removing it from the retaining clamps.
7. Switching the instrument off:
Turn the main switch to "Off" (see note).
Switch off the exhaust system.
The instrument is switched off.
