Ion Max and Ion Max-S Housing Maintenance
The Ion Max and Ion Max-S ion source housings are designed to be serviced by
Thermo Fisher Scientific customer support engineers. User maintenance is limited to cleaning
the ion source housing as necessary. To clean the housing, remove the housing from the
instrument, and in an appropriate fume hood rinse the interior of the housing with methanol.
Allow the housing to dry before you install it on the mass spectrometer. Be sure to follow all
safety precautions in the sections regarding the installation and removal of the housing. For
any additional service that might be required, contact your local Thermo Fisher Scientific
service representative.
