Agilent 5100 and 5110 ICP-OES Site Preparation Guide 47
Waste Fluid Container
The Agilent ICP-OES system needs a drain vessel for disposal of
excess fluids and vapors from the spraychamber or autosampler.
Suitable tubing is supplied with the spectrometer for use with
inorganic solvents. When using organic solvents, different drain
tubing that is suitable for the solvent in use will be required.
A chemically inert container, not glass or of a narrow-necked style, to
hold a minimum of 2 liters (4 pints) of waste must be provided by the
user. It should be located underneath the sample compartment (or on
the right side of the instrument), where it is protected by the bench
and in full view of the operator.
After the waste fluid container requirements have been met, check the checklist box:
Waste container appropriate for the chemical waste is prepared.
Guidelines for Software Installation
Agilent recommends that you purchase a PC as part of the Agilent
ICP-OES package. The PC included in the package will come with the
appropriate operating system as loaded by the PC supplier.
For instructions on installing the Microsoft Windows operating
system, refer to the appropriate manuals supplied with the software.
It is the responsibility of the customer to ensure that the operating
system software has been installed and is functional if the customer
is supplying the PC or the operating system.
NOTE
Agilent will not assume responsibility for loss of data.
The Agilent service engineer will connect the PC to the spectrometer
and any factory-approved accessories purchased at installation.
Initial instrument software installation is also included as part of the
system installation. For information on installing the Agilent
ICP-OES system software, consult the ICP Expert software
installation instructions or the ICP Expert CFR software installation
instructions supplied with the instrument software.
