Maintenance Procedures

Fitting the differential aperture to the ion guide assembly

Required materials

•

Clean, chemical-resistant, powder-free gloves

•

Small, flat-blade screwdriver

To fit the differential aperture to the ion guide assembly:

1. Hold the differential aperture against the support rods so that the rods

align with the 3 holes in the differential aperture’s base.

2. To ensure the differential aperture is correctly aligned with the ion

guide assembly, look along the central axis of the ion guide from the ion

entry side, and confirm that the hole at the centre of the differential

aperture is concentric with the ion guide lens plates.

3. Use the small flat-blade screwdriver to fit and tighten the 3 slotted

screws that secure the differential aperture to the support rods. While

tightening the screws, ensure correct alignment of the differential

aperture with the ion guide lens plates (see

step 2

Caution:

Sensitivity is reduced if the differential aperture is

aligned incorrectly during refitting.
