Thermo Scientific TSQ Quantum XLS and TSQ Quantum GC Preinstallation Requirements Guide 3
Site Preparation
Before your instrument can be installed by a Thermo Fisher Scientific service engineer, you
must prepare the site. Transport of the equipment to the site requires wide entrances and
hallways. Supporting the weight of the mass spectrometer, computer, and gas chromatography
(GC) system requires large and strong workbenches. You must install a telephone within reach
of the workbench. Tab le 1 summarizes the site preparation requirements and indicates where
you will find additional information.
You are responsible for providing an acceptable installation site.
