Instrument Idle State

In between routine use, it is recommended the instrument be left in
the idle state, which is when the instrument is fully powered but the
plasma off. In this state the polychromator thermostating system and
purge systems remain operational, and the internal air cooling
system runs at reduced capacity. If the ICP-OES is not going to be in
use for a prolonged period of time, fully shutdown the instrument
(which turns off all purging as well as the polychromator
thermostating system).
