I’m sorry for the delayed reply to your message. Do you still need assistance with this? If you do, please take into consideration the notes below. However, if the issue was resolved, could you please share what the resolution was?
From what I understand…
Based on your latest results, I would say that nothing is fundamentally wrong with the optical unit in terms of noise, so I believe this is more an applicational problem - your passed quick noise test points to that direction. The error 1050 with the…
Hello, H2 is the fuel for the flame in the FID, so if you are out of H2 then the FID will not be able to light. That is very likely the reason why you are not seeing a signal from the FID.
Disconnect the sample probe from the valve and start the leak and restriction test. If it passes this step, it means that there is some restriction in the sample probe, enough to cause that part of the test to fail. Try a brand new probe. If it fails…
Seems then to indicate something in the flow path when including the mixer and damper. First, make sure that you do an elasticity calibration because you have changed important parts in the flow path. Then re-run the pump leak rate test with the mixer…
Hello experts!! I have 6460 LCMSMS system. It unfortunately failed in tuning even in brand new tuning solution. Auto tune repeatedly failed in peak width adjustment in MS1. What could be the problems and possible answers? Cleaning is done up to ion transfer…
No, the flows on the two columns downstream of the switch have to be equal. They are feed by the same pressure source, so since MSD is under vacuum and the FID is ambient, the column connected to the MSD has to have more restriction, to keep the flows…
I'm trying to create a report with a column which calculates the percentage of all integrated peaks above a specific threshold. I have created a report parameter to format the number of significant digits, this is a request of some of our clients. At…
I found the issue. I have "Hide duplicates" selected which prevents any additional Fails from being displayed. However, if I uncheck that box, there is a Fail in every row. This is a summary result, is there a way to make it display only once per group…
