General Maintenance 6
Maintaining the Analyzer
Operation Manual 113
on the quad driver board. ESD damage may not cause
immediate failure but will gradually degrade performance and
stability.
Analyzer parts that should not be disturbed
The mass filter (quadrupole) and the collision cell require no
periodic maintenance. In general, the mass filter should never
be disturbed. In the event of extreme contamination, it can be
cleaned, but such cleaning should only be done by a trained
Agilent Technologies service representative. The HED ceramic
insulator must never be touched.
More information is available
If you need more information about the locations or functions of
analyzer components, refer to the Agilent 7200 Accurate-Mass
Q-TOF GC/MS Concepts Guide.
CAUTION
Electrostatic discharges to analyzer components are conducted to the
quad driver board where they can damage sensitive components. Wear
a grounded antistatic wrist strap and take other antistatic precautions
when working on the analyzer.
CAUTION
Incorrect handling or cleaning of the mass filter can damage it and
have a serious, negative effect on instrument performance. Never open
the analyzer door, and do not touch the HED ceramic insulator.
