How to Move the 4000 MS
To move the 4000 MS proceed as follows:
1. Using the shutdown procedure, shut down the GC and mass spectrometer.
2. Turn off the GC and computer. Then unplug the GC, mass spectrometer, and
data system power cords.
3. Keep an eye on the capillary column inside the GC as you gently slide the
mass spectrometer away from the GC. Be sure not to bend or kink the
capillary column.
4. Use the alignment tool to prevent the transfer line from turning while you
loosen the brass capillary nut connecting the column to the transfer line.
5. Cap the transfer line with a capillary nut and no-hole ferrule.
6. Place the capillary column and nut inside the GC oven. This will protect them
from damage.
7. Turn off the carrier gas, and then disconnect the helium gas line that is
connected to the GC filter.
8. Cap the filters with Swagelok® plugs or caps.
9. Move the 4000 MS to its new location. Be sure the new location satisfies the
power and environmental requirements.
