ICP-MS 7800 error 1432

Hi, 

please have a look at the back of the instrument.

There are several air vents, which all needs to be clean. Especially these from the power supply (the lower ones, near of the power cord). The second important point is the air vent in the near of the argon input, behind are the temperature sensors.

If these air vents are dusty, just clean them (vacuuming or use argon to blow the dust off)

Cheers

I also encountered the same error 1432. The exhaust Duct was 4" instead of company recommended 6". We are trying to replace it with a bigger exhaust fan if that will vent the in-house temperature going higher. I am just wondering whether the Chiller temperature can be lowered to 14 or 15 instead of 20 Celcius.

Hello,

Lowering the chiller temperature won't assist with clearing this error. 1432 is almost always due to an exhaust issue. The exhaust must be a 6" duct, with flow between 4.7 and 6.6 m/s as per the site preparation guide

Hope this helps

Hi 

the diameter of the exhaust duct should be 150mm.  smaller diameters could work, but the exhaust low has to be between 5-7 m3/min. If a 150mm duct is used these values are achieved when the flow is between 4.7 and 6.6 m/s. If you for example use a 100mm duct the flow has to be at least 10.5m/s.

Thank you so much for the information.
