Figure 3 Recommended 1200L LC/MS System Layout
The 1200L LC/MS system should be installed on a clean, flat surface. The minimum bench
space required for the system is 57 cm x 210 cm for the LC, 1200, and PC, 275 cm with the
printer. Ensure that the bench is capable of supporting the weight of the system: at least 200 kg
plus allowances for any options.
The 1200L MS uses two foreline pumps that should be positioned on the floor beneath the
workbench on which the 1200L MS system sits. There is a 96 in. (2.44m) vacuum line from the
back, left of the MS that connects to the foreline pumps, and a pump controller that must be
positioned within 80 in. (2m) of the MS.
Power Requirements 1200L LC/MS
The 1200L LC/MS system requires two dedicated fourplex single-phase power sources with
earth grounds hard-wired to the main power panel ground, and one 230V 20A power source.
One of these fourplex power sources is for the mass spectrometer, computer, and monitor; the
other fourplex power source is for the liquid chromatograph, and the 230V 20A source is for the
foreline pumps. If you have additional sample preparation devices or test equipment, we
recommend a separate dedicated power source for their operation. Never plug the mass
spectrometer and the chromatograph into the same power source, or you may overload the
fourplex power source. Never use the free outlet on any of the power sources for equipment
drawing more than 2A.
Within North America these power sources must be 20A, 120 Vac, 60 Hz
±
3 Hz and 20A,
230 Vac, 60 Hz
±
3 Hz for the two foreline pumps.
Outside North America power sources must be 10A, 230 Vac, 50 Hz
±
3 Hz and 20A, 230V
50 Hz
±
3 Hz for the two foreline pumps.
