Shutting Down the System
To shut down the ASXPRESS PLUS Rapid Sample Introduction System, complete
the following steps:
1 Drain the system by removing the rinse solution uptake tubing from the rinse
solution sources (autosampler and ICP/ICP-MS). Operate the autosampler
peristaltic pump and ASX
PRESS PLUS vacuum pump by operating the “manual
cycle” function or by using the manual function for operating the autosampler
peristaltic pump (both from within the Xpress Configuration Tool software)
and manually running the ICP/ICP-MS peristaltic pump until all solution drains
from the tube attached to the rinse station outlet, the vacuum pump waste
discharge, and from the ICP/ICP-MS nebulizer drain.
NOTE
If using a rinse solution other than deionized water, flush the rinse system with
deionized water before shutting down and/or draining the ASXPRESS PLUS
discrete Sampling Accessory. For more information, see the following section,
“Flushing the Rinse Station and Flow Path”.
2 Turn off the power switch on the back of the electronics module.
3 Turn off the power switches on the autosampler and instrument.
