Caution! Interconnection of the two exhaust lines, Rotary and
Inlet, MUST be avoided if at all possible. The rotary pump exhaust
contains oil mist that could result in serious contamination if allowed
to enter the RMS inlet and subsequently the mass spectrometer. If
interconnection is unavoidable, it should be positioned as far
downstream as possible and a guaranteed positive gas flow provided
to the RMS exhaust to reduce the chances of back flow (see above
statements on inert gas flow).
Refer to the chapter relating to the specific inlet system for further
details on the exhaust requirements.
It is the user's responsibility to supply all the necessary pipe work to
connect the two exhaust outlets to a suitable location.
Power
This section provides details on the power requirements for the
instrument.
A single phase power supply is required – either 115 Vac ( 5 Vac)
or 230 Vac ( 10 Vac). Note that voltage and frequency are specified
at time of order.
Safe area systems will accept either 50 Hz or 60 Hz supplies.
Caution!


In other cases, mixed streams can react together to form
condensable or polymeric materials.
The addition of an inert gas stream can reduce or avoid the
need for the use of special materials, heat tracing of the
exhaust line, etc.
Inert gas flow requirements will be application specific.
Assessing the suitability of an inert gas addition to the
exhaust stream, its provision, and monitoring are the
responsibility of the user.
Ex rated systems for hazardous area operation will only
operate at a specific frequency.
Check that the ratings and supply are correct before installation.
