Required materials
Chemical-resistant, powder-free gloves
To disconnect the APGC from the mass spectrometer
:
1. Pull the locking handle outward to unlock the sliding table (see the
figure on page 1-4).
2. Turn the locking ring fully counterclockwise to disengage the screw
threads from the source enclosure’s heated transfer line connector.
3. Carefully move the sliding table fully away from the mass spectrometer.
4. Release the locking handle to secure the sliding table.
5. Fit and tighten the APGC protection cap over the capillary column tip.
Warning: To avoid personal contamination with biologically
hazardous, toxic, or corrosive materials, and to avoid
spreading contamination to uncontaminated surfaces, wear
clean, chemical-resistant, powder-free gloves when handling
source components.
Warning: To avoid burn injuries, take great care while
working with the APGC source and the heated transfer line
assembly; they can be hot.
