10. Check all wires to ensure that none contact any metal surface and that there is sufficient
space left below the source block for the magnet yoke.
CAUTION Although the wires are insulated with glass braid, they may short through the
insulation if they touch a metal surface. Use caution when closing the door to ensure the
magnets to not come in contact with the source block or top of the filament. This might
cause them to be disengaged from the holder.
ATTENTION Bien que les fils soient isolés à l'aide de fibre de verre, ils peuvent
court-circuiter à travers l'isolation s'ils entrent en contact avec une surface métallique. Soyez
prudent lorsque vous fermez la porte, afin de vous assurer que les aimants n'entrent pas en
contact avec le bloc source ou le dessus du filament. Cela peut les désengager du support.
11. Align the manifold door with the ion source and screw it to the manifold.
Note For proper alignment and sensitivity, the front manifold door should be screwed
down fully to keep the magnet alignment with the ion source correct.
12. Install the CI and calibration tubes if they are not already installed.
a. Use 1/16 in. graphite-Vespel ferrules and tighten 1/2 turn past the position that just
begins to hold the tubing firm. Do not reuse graphite-Vespel ferrules more than three
times as they can become too compressed to re-tighten if a leak is found at their seal.
b. Replace the right side cover.
13. Install the column or no-hole ferrule.
14. Ensure the transfer line is positioned correctly in the GC oven.
15. Use the source plug and the associated procedure found in
page 13
to make sure the column is placed at the edge of the ion source.
16. Close the manifold door and reattach the four screws. Confirm that front door screws
hold door completely to the manifold.
17. Reconnect the four wires that connect the rear 4-pin feedthrough to quadrupole 3 and
the collision cell assembly. See
18. Reconnect the four wires that connect the front 4-pin feedthrough to quadrupole 1 and
the ion guide. See
Figure 117
19. Reconnect the collision gas tube. See
20. Put the glass manifold covers back into place. Be sure to blow off all dust from the covers
and o-ring first.
21. Reconnect the electrometer board cable.
22. Reattach the top cover and tighten the top cover panel screw.
