User manual, Revision 2.0
Installation
Installation requirements
The SUPER SESI is an ion source for mass spectrometry analysis. In order to function, it must be
coupled with a compatible mass spectrometer. It requires an electric power receptacle 230 V
ac, ±10%, frequency of 50/60 Hz, single phase. The SUPER SESI must be powered with the same
ground connection, and the same phase as the mass spectrometer.
A small table located near the working area is required to place the source and the different
components during initial installation and routine operation.
SUPER SESI is designed to operate under the following conditions:
•
Indoor use; altitude up to 2 000 m; temperature 5°C to 40°C; maximum relative humidity
80% for temperatures up to 31°C, decreasing linearly to 50% at 40°C;
•
TRANSIENT OVERVOLTAGES up to the levels of OVERVOLTAGE CATEGORY ll;
•
applicable POLLUTION DEGREE of the intended environment (POLLUTION DEGREE 2).
IMPORTANT NOTE
SUPER SESI does not incorporate circuit breakers or residual current
breakers. It only incorporates protection overcurrent fuses (1A). The user must ensure
that the electrical power installation for SUPER SESI provides the required electrical
protections, in accordance with local legislation.
Unboxing the SUPER SESI
The SUPER SESI is packed with the nano-amperemeter, the vial holder, the electrospray probe
and the Mass Flow Controller in their working position. In order to protect the SUPER SESI from
contamination during shipping, the MS interface is covered with a stainless steel cover. To get
the SUPER SESI out of its original packaging, grab the Handles and lift the SUPER SESI. Remove
the parafilm before using the SUPER SESI.
CAUTION
Do not grab the sample line to lift the SUPER SESI.
IMPORTANT NOTE
Make sure that no Parafilm is left on the SUPER SESI before you
start using it. In particular, make sure that all Parafilm is removed before you start the
SUPER SESI heaters.
Along with the SUPER SESI, you will also find the following: a power cord, a syringe and the
battery charger for the nano-amperemeter.
IMPORTANT NOTE
Keeping the original packaging to store the SUPER SESI is strongly
advisable to prevent contamination of your SUPER SESI when it is not being used. The
SUPER SESI should be transported in its original package.
Coupling the SUPER SESI and the Mass Spectrometer
Before coupling the SUPER SESI to the Mass Spectrometer, the original Ion source and the ion
sweep cone must be removed. Remove the Thermo ion source housing and the ion sweep cone
from the mass spectrometer following the instructions indicated in the Operating Manual of the
instrument. Once these components are removed, the inlet of your mass spectrometer should
have the appearance of the figure 9:
