Risk Analysis

  2.6.1

Personal Operational Risks

The following is a list of tasks carried out by both the operator and service engineer where
recognised risks have been observed, listed is the personnel protection equipment (PPE) which is
suggested for use for various tasks on any surface analysis equipment and systems:

Task

protective gloves.

Use of Liquid
Nitrogen in sample
cooling etc.

Operator / Service
engineer

2.6.2 Hazardous 

Materials

    

Isopropanol (IPA)

For certain service tasks isopropanol is suggested for cleaning components before use in the
vacuum system. It should be noted that isopropanol is a flammable liquid and as such should
not be used on hot surfaces. In addition it is recommended that protective gloves are worn
when using isopropanol.

   

Compressed Air

Compressed air can be a potential hazard if handled inappropriately. A compressed air line
may be fed from some instruments to the customers supply, and the customer should ensure
that this and any other service pipes and cables are maintained in good condition.

    

Nitrogen, Argon and Helium Gas Supplies

Instruments may use nitrogen, argon or helium gas supplies for their operation, the customer
is responsible for maintaining the supply to the instrument. This supply should be regulated
and kept to the lowest pressure and flow rate as is practical to minimise the effects of any
leaks.

   

Hazardous Gases

Quorum Technologies has no control over the gases used within the system. It is therefore
viewed as the customers responsibility to assess the hazards involved and take appropriate
precautions when using explosive, toxic or corrosive gases or gases which may result in
hazardous products as a result of a chemical reaction.
