Removing the APGC vial carriers from the mass spectrometer’s
source
Required materials
Chemical-resistant, powder-free gloves
To remove the vial carriers
:
1. Prepare the instrument for working on its source (see page 2-2 ).
2. Pull the APGC source enclosure release (located at the bottom,
right-hand side) outward, and then swing open the enclosure.
3. Close the source isolation valve.
4. Remove the heated vial carrier from the top of the mass spectrometer’s
source ion block (see the figure on page 1-10 ).
5. Remove the unheated vial carrier from the bottom of the source
enclosure.
Warning:
To avoid personal contamination with biologically
hazardous, toxic, or corrosive materials, and to avoid
spreading contamination to uncontaminated surfaces, wear
clean, chemical-resistant, powder-free gloves when handling
source components.
Warning:
To avoid electric shock, prepare the instrument for
work performed on its source before removing the vial
carriers from the mass spectrometer’s source.
Warning:
To avoid burn injuries, take great care while working
with the source and heated vial carrier; they can be hot.
