This Information Applies To: Agilent 5000 Series ICP-OES (5100/5110/5800/5900)
Issue
Correct ventilation is required to ensure proper function of the ICP-OES
Resolution
The ICP-OES must be located under a flue that is vented by an exhaust fan and ducted to an external vent.
|
Caution: The exhaust system installation must comply with any rules and/or regulations that may be imposed by the local authorities responsible for control of facilities and fixtures in the work place
|
The exhaust system (flue, ducting, and external vent) requirements are:
|
Warning: The exhaust system must be on before the plasma is ignited otherwise damage to the instrument or injury to the operator may occur
|
|
Caution: Exceeding the exhaust maximum flow could impact the sustainability of the plasma resulting in an error with the instrument function
|
