1. Introduction
These installation guidelines summarize the preparations that the customer should
make to smooth the installation of the delivered GCMS-QP2010.
Please follow these guidelines to ensure safety, reliable analysis, and long use of the
instrument.
2. Installation example
The diagram on the next page shows the example of a standard GCMS-QP2010
configuration installed on a table. (The oil rotary pump i is located on the floor.)
Leave a space of at least 300mm between the rear edge of the table and the wall for
the following reasons:
(1) to position the oil rotary pump;
(2) for the discharge of hot air during column-oven cooling;
(3) for maintenance.
Also, for inspection and maintenance purposes, leave a space of at least 400mm at
the left of the table.
