That's interesting. I wonder if there are any differences to be expected between a 6890N and a 7890 GC when using Chemstation on the 6890N and Openlab 2.3 on the 7890 with FID? Also, would there be any differences in the signal to noise and dynamic range…
Hello, Finally we were able to resolve, for some reason the scheduled task that is supposed to generate the certs at startup was failing. Recreating and running the task fixed the certificate after rename issue, and now the client is able to connect to…
Hi All,
I was trying to perform the Sampler Leak Test on the G7167B 1290 Multisampler. Whenever it reaches the last portion of the leak test (Blindseat leak measurement) the pressure just could not build up and the whole Sampler leak test will fail…
Hello MarKon ,
Those the only options I would be familiar with and I can recommend.
The calibration indeed seems to only address the sample transfer from tray to turret, and I don't imagine it has anything to do with the Gripper. Since you are…
Hello,
Please try replacing the torch. If that does not resolve your issue, please contact Agilent customer support to begin the process of opening a repair service order. It is possible that your waveguide has failed. Have a great day
Two instruments are running off the one computer (two cards). One is a 6890N/5973N, one is 6890N/5975 with Gerstel Rail. Neither instrument has an FID, just the one MS detector, so only one signal from each. It doesn't seem to matter if both instruments…
Let me summarize...
Everything that you 've shared with us ALAZ looks perfectly normal, except the calibration on one of the FID channels doesn't show all of the calibration levels.
I'm now completely out of ideas. You've done everything that I would…
Hi Marty,
After transferring the CC file, I linked it to my processing method and reprocessed all data. There are no errors after processing. By broken, I mean that the values are not showing up/blank in my injection results (and also in my custom report…
Running a 7800 ICP-MS and during the past two weeks have been experiencing difficulties. The doubly charge percentage has continually risen with each day of testing. I have removed and cleaned the cones and lens stack and conditioned before use. I checked…
