Hi.
After the icp-ms device has been working in the plasma on position for 15-20 minutes, it gives Error: 1212 and Error: 1233 error. Forward power and refleckted power values constantly vary.
After turning the icp-ms device into the shut down position, everything turns back to normal after removing all electrical connections and starting the device again.
When Icp-ms moves the device to plasma on position it gives the same error again.
I would be glad if you help me. Thank you.
The plasma 48V errors means Ar gas leak, interlock error, hardware problem.
I recommend below check points.
1. Checking Ar gas leak in sample introduction(torch, nebulizer, Spray chamber, end cap).
- Replace sample introduction with cleaned or new one.
- You should check nebulizer gas connector. Sometimes, people doesn't replace it when changing nebulizer. But, this part MUST be replaced.
2. Checking a elbow Ar gas connector.
- If It looks like old one, it should be replaced. They could make a Ar gas leakage.
3. Interlock error and hardware problem.
- Plasma cover and main cover interlock switch concern 48V errors.
- I experienced bad power supply could occurred same problem. In my case, plasma running time was 1 hour then off.
- This case need Agilent engineer service.
Good luck to you.
