Where is the Electron Multiplier horn in an MS 6120?

Question

Hello 
 
 From a previous question ( link ) I was told to change the electron multiplier horn. 
 
 In the manual there are pictures of the EM, however, there is no path on how to get there. 
 
 I am attaching a picture of my 6120 where I removed several panels. Can anyone guide me to find the EM? 
 
 Thank you

Hi Danielchsny, 
 
 You first need to make sure the system is vented. Then you will need to remove the electronics box above the desolvation chamber. To do that, you will need to unplug the Vcap/Vchamper power supply (white plug seen at the bottom of the middle top picture you posted), ensure that the T20 captive screw above the desolvation chamber is loose, and then lift up the electronics box. Once you have removed the electronics box from the top, you can remove the metal plate that sits on top of the detector manifold. The electron multiplier is at the back of the manifold behind the quad. 
 
 Good luck!
