5.1 Shutting Down the System in an
Emergency
If you need to turn off the MS detector in an emergency, place the main power
circuit breaker switch, located on the power panel on the right side panel of
the MS detector (see Figure 5-1), in the Off (O) position. This turns off all
power to the MS detector, including the vacuum pumps. Although removing
power abruptly will not harm any component within the system, this is not the
recommended shutdown procedure to follow. Refer to the Shutting Down the
System Completely topic, on page 5-4, for the recommended procedure.
To turn off the LC, autosampler, and computer in an emergency, use the on/off
switches on the LC, autosampler, and computer, respectively.
