Bruker Daltonik GmbH
Instrument Layout
This instrument contains a
class IV
laser product emitting
337 nm light
. The
enclosure surrounding the instrument is designed to protect the user from indirect
radiation of the invisible light. Operating the instrument with opened covers can
expose the user to harmful laser radiation, which may result in blindness.
Never look directly into the laser beam. Always wear safety goggles before lifting the
cover. Make sure other people cannot expose themselves to the laser light. Avoid
bringing highly reflecting parts into the beam (screw drivers, watches, rings) because
the reflected visible and invisible light could reach your eye, causing irreparable
injuries!
3.1.3 Vacuum System
The vacuum system of the
ultraflex
consists of two high vacuum and three rough
vacuum areas. The vacuum lock of the SCOUT-MTP and the exhaust of both turbo
molecular pumps are coupled and guided via valves to the vacuum side of the foreline
pump. Depending on the system status, e.g., when changing a target plate, each of
the rough vacuum lines can be closed separately by computer-controlled valves. The
input of the turbo-molecular pumps is attached directly to the high vacuum areas of the
ion source housing and the ion flight tube, respectively.
The instrument operates at a high vacuum pressure of about 8*10-7 mbar or better.
The rough vacuum pressure ranges from atmosphere to about 1*10
-2
mbar.
