Site Preparation
Overview
N O T E
Before the 5975 Series MSD system can be installed, the site must be properly prepared. Site preparation includes, but is not limited to, ensuring that adequate facilities are available. Among the site requirements are:
•Adequate space is available for the MSD system.
•A suitable supporting bench is available.
•Adequate electrical power is available at the correct voltages and frequencies.
•Environmental control systems are adequate to maintain a correct, stable operating environment.
•Preparations for safe exhaust venting are adequate.
•Supplies necessary for instrument operation are available, including solvents, carrier and reagent gasses, and printer paper.
Installation and verification will only be performed using helium carrier gas. CI systems require methane reagent gas for verification.
Delays due to inadequate site preparation could cause loss of instrument use during the warranty period. In extreme cases, Agilent Technologies may ask to be reimbursed for the additional time required to complete the installation.
Agilent Technologies provides service during the warranty period and under maintenance agreements only if the specified site requirements are met.
Customer responsibility
Unless previous arrangements have been made with Agilent Technologies, site preparation is the customer’s responsibility. Customer responsibilities include, but are not limited to:
•Planning, scheduling, and preparing the site according to the specifications in this manual
•Verifying that the electrical environment is safe and adequate for the MSD system installation and operation
