Performance Specifications
The system is designed to meet specifications under these conditions:
• An ambient temperature of 18 °C to 25 °C (64 °F to 77 °F)
Over time, the temperature must remain within a range of 2 °C (3.6 °F) from the temperature at the time of
last calibration, with the rate of the change in temperature not exceeding 2°C (3.6°F) per hour. Ambient
temperature fluctuations exceeding the limits might result in mass shifts in spectra.
• Relative humidity from 20% to 80%, non-condensing
Equipment Use and Modification
WARNING! Personal Injury Hazard. Contact the SCIEX representative if product
installation, adjustment, or relocation is required.
WARNING! Electrical Shock Hazard. Do not remove the covers. Removing the
covers might cause injury or malfunctioning of the system. The covers need
not be removed for routine maintenance, inspection, or adjustment. Contact
a SCIEX Field Service Employee (FSE) for repairs that require the covers to be
removed.
WARNING! Personal Injury Hazard. Use SCIEX-recommended parts only. Use of parts
not recommended by SCIEX or use of parts for any purpose other than their intended
purpose can put the user at risk of harm or negatively impact system performance.
Use the mass spectrometer and ion source indoors in a laboratory that complies with the environmental conditions
recommended in the
Site Planning Guide
.
If the mass spectrometer and ion source are used in an environment or in a manner not prescribed by the
manufacturer, then the protection provided by the equipment might be impaired.
Unauthorized modification or operation of the mass spectrometer and ion source might cause personal injury and
equipment damage, and might void the warranty. Erroneous data might be generated if the mass spectrometer
