General Precautions

• If you have a pacemaker or similar implanted device, consult your physician

WAR NING before using this instrument. This instrument can potentially affect
pacemaker operation.
• The power cord set that is shipped with this instrument cannot be used with
other products.
• Do not use any power cord other than that supplied with this instrument.

Do not edit or change instrument parameters with any software except

WAR NING MassHunter.
This may result in impairment of the safety designs equipped in the
instrument.
Also take sufficient precautions if you customize MassHunter operations using
script files or other means.

The Agilent ICP-MS is a very safe instrument with many built-in protective
C AU T I O N features:
• A safety interlock shuts off the plasma if either of the top covers is opened
during operation.
• A plasma viewing window provides eye protection.
• Sensors monitor the water and argon flow rate and pressure. If the water
flow is too low to sufficiently cool the ICP-MS, or if the argon supply is
insufficient, the plasma is turned off automatically.
• There are fans to help ensure that the instrument's internal temperature
stays within the preset limits. The plasma is turned off automatically if any
of these fans, except the QP fan, fail.
• Temperature sensors on the exhaust vent, instrument inside, and intake
water line stop the plasma if overheating occurs.
• A manual switch shuts down the instrument immediately, even if the
MassHunter Workstation is inoperable.

In case of uncertainty about a specific fluid, that fluid should not be used until
C AU T I O N confirmation by the manufacturer that it will not present a Hazard.

2 Precautions
General Precautions

• A sensor monitors the radio frequency (RF) generator and shuts it down if it
C AU T I O N is improperly matched to the RF coil.
• A fiber-optic sensor shuts off the RF high voltage power whenever the
plasma is not present or is turned off manually.
The ICP-MS MassHunter Workstation displays warning messages when the
sensors first detect a problem, enabling you to stop work before the
shutdown limits are reached.
• The parameters displayed in the instrument control window change from
green to yellow/red as the shutdown limits are approached/reached.
In addition to the above safety features, the following precautions should
always be taken during operation or maintenance:
• Check acid concentration. Continuous aspiration of a highly concentrated
acid might attack the inside of the instrument.
• Close the instrument covers and panels before operation.
• Check the exhaust system for a positive extraction at the exhaust duct.
• Handle solvents correctly.
• Check the drain vessel frequently.
• Check the condition of the pipes, replace as needed.

2 Precautions
Precautions for Use

Precautions for Use

Protective Earth

Connecting the ICP-MS to a power source that is not equipped with a

WAR NING protective earth contact creates a shock hazard for the operator and can
damage the ICP-MS. Likewise, interrupting the protective conductor of the
ICP-MS or overriding the power cord ground creates a shock hazard for the
operator and can damage the instrument.

Closing the Instrument Panels and Covers

Close the instrument top covers before starting the plasma. Because the
instrument can be optimized entirely via MassHunter Workstation, there is no
need to open the front and side panels or cover after the plasma is ignited. In
addition, a safety interlock shuts off the plasma if the cover is lifted.

The external covers of the instrument protect the operator from internal
WAR NING hazards while the instrument is in operation. Exposure to high voltage and
radio frequency radiation from the RF power supply is present and can be very
dangerous.

Wearing Safety Glasses

Eye Hazard
WAR NING
Always wear appropriate safety glasses when handling sample solutions and
other chemicals, or when the plasma is on, in order to minimize the risk of eye
damage by hazardous liquids and exposure to ultraviolet rays.

7800/7850/7900 ICP-MS Hardware Maintenance Manual 31

2 Precautions
Checking the Exhaust System

Checking the Exhaust System

Asphyxiation Hazard
WAR NING
Laboratory must be equipped with ventilation system to supply continuous and
sufficient fresh air from outside to prevent user from asphyxiation.

Health Hazard, Asphyxiation Hazard

WAR NING
Laboratory must be equipped with exhaust system to remove harmful gases
via a scrubber system to outside of the laboratory, to prevent user from
asphyxiation. User safety requires that the exhaust gases from the plasma and
vacuum systems be vented externally to the building and not recirculated by
the environmental control system. Health hazards include chemical toxicity of
solvents, samples, and foreline pump fluid vapor.

Health Hazard
WAR NING
If the exhaust system stops for any reason, immediately shut off all gas
supplies at the source.
• Do not turn off the exhaust system while gas supplies are on.
• Do not cover the holes for air intake on the ICP-MS.
• If the exhaust fan is inoperable or there is insufficient air flow, do not start
the ICP-MS until the appropriate maintenance personnel have repaired the
problem.

The exhaust system must remain on at all times while the ICP-MS is on: in
NOTE Analysis mode, Standby mode and Shutdown mode.

Noxious Gases
WAR NING
If the exhaust system stops for any reason while the vacuum pump or ICP-MS
are still running, immediately turn on the exhaust system or turn off the pump
and instrument. If inadequate ventilation occurs, vaporized pump fluid, ozone,
and other toxic combustion products will accumulate in the laboratory.
Hydrofluoric acid (HF) fumes, if inhaled, cause extensive burning of lung
tissue.

32 7800/7850/7900 ICP-MS Hardware Maintenance Manual

2 Precautions
Checking the Exhaust System

Explosion Hazard
WAR NING
The laboratory exhaust system must always be operational and connected to
the instrument exhaust vent. Potential health hazards and the risk of
explosions may occur if exhaust gases are incorrectly ventilated.

Personal Injury Hazard

WAR NING
Check that the hinge for the cover is operating correctly. If the exhaust system
does not operate correctly, oil mist may cause the hinge of the small flip-up
cover to malfunction, which may result in personal injury.
• If you find any problems, please contact Agilent.
• Do not disconnect the exhaust hose from the foreline pump.

Toxic Gases
WAR NING
Immediately turn off the gas supplies at the source in the event the exhaust
system is stopped for any reason. Refer to “Appendix H. Hydrogen Safety
Guide” on page 165 and “Appendix I. Ammonia Safety Guide” on page 167.
These, and other gases which may be used with the ICP-MS present a variety
of risks.

Condensation
C AU T I O N
Ensure that the exhaust system is working correctly at all times. Instrument
damage from condensation may occur due to reverse flow through the exhaust
system.

Exhaust venting must comply with all local environmental and safety codes.
IMPORTANT Contact your Environmental Health & Safety (EHS) specialist.

7800/7850/7900 ICP-MS Hardware Maintenance Manual 33

2 Precautions
Handling Solvents Correctly

Handling Solvents Correctly

Organic and aqueous solvents can be hazardous if handled improperly.

WAR NING Unskilled, improper, or careless use of flammable solvents can create
explosion hazards and fire hazards. This can result in death, or severe personal
injury or burns. Always follow the precautions listed below to protect both
operator and instrument:
• Read the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for each solvent used.
• Prepare samples and transfer acids under a fume hood with adequate
extraction.
• Wear gloves when handling acids or solvents.
• Wear safety glasses when handling any liquids.
• Cover volatile samples to minimize exposure to fumes and possible
explosion hazard.
• Clean any spillage immediately using the approved laboratory procedures.
• Store and prepare samples away from the instrument to prevent corrosion.
• Use sample uptake tubing that is compatible with the sample solvent being
pumped.
• Solvent spillage into instrument: please call the customer contact center.
Acid digestion at atmospheric or increased pressure require these additional
precautions:
• Apply heat slowly, watching for a possible reaction after each increase in
temperature.
• Drip a second acid or washing aid slowly into a hot sample while watching
for signs of a vigorous reaction.
• Cool the digested sample before you transfer it, or dilute it slowly with
water.
• Never use perchloric acid in a pressure digestion.

When using Organic solvents, extra caution should be observed. If the spray
WAR NING chamber drain is not pumped properly, the excess flammable solvents in the
spray chamber may ignite and/or become explosive. If the torch injector clogs,
the increased pressure in the spray chamber may cause the end cap to blow off
exposing the solvent to ignition.

34 7800/7850/7900 ICP-MS Hardware Maintenance Manual

2 Precautions
Checking the Drain Vessel

Checking the Drain Vessel

The drain vessel contains the spray chamber effluent, which can be toxic.
WAR NING Improper handling of the vessel can result in a serious explosion or fire if
incompatible substances accumulate. Corrosion of the vessel and connecting
tube can result in leaks that may damage the instrument or cause bodily harm.
If the effluent collected in the drain vessel contains toxic materials or solvents,
follow approved laboratory procedures to safely dispose of this hazardous
waste.
Ensure that the drain bottle is adequately ventilated (by the lab ventilation
system, the same as for the ICP-MS mainframe) to deal with vapors from the
bottle.
Clean the drain vessel every time you empty it by thoroughly flushing it with
water. If it contained organic solvents, wash the drain vessel in acetone and
allow it to dry.
Follow the procedures below to avoid exposure to the contents of the drain
vessel:
• When using organic solvent, please use a suitably sized waste container of
appropriately resistant material for the collection of organic solvent.
• Place the drain vessel on the instrument table, where it is easy to check the
liquid level.
• Tightly connect the drainage tubing from the spray chamber around the
peristaltic pump to the drain vessel. Do not crimp the tubing.
• Check the drain vessel frequently. Empty it before you ignite the plasma.
• Be aware of the nature of the vessel contents. If the contents are toxic,
dispose of them as hazardous waste. Also, always empty the vessel when
switching from aqueous to organic sample solutions.
• Check the tubing and vessel for deterioration. If the tubing becomes brittle
or cracked, replace it. Organic solvents generally cause more rapid
deterioration than aqueous solutions.

7800/7850/7900 ICP-MS Hardware Maintenance Manual 35

2 Precautions
Compressed Gas Tanks

Compressed Gas Tanks

Do not set the cell gas supply pressure higher than the specification of the
WAR NING ICP-MS instrument.

Compressed gas tanks must be handled with care. The contents of the
WAR NING cylinders also may be hazardous, depending on the gases you choose to use.
All compressed gases (other than air) can create a hazard if they leak into the
atmosphere. Even small leaks in gas supply systems can be dangerous. Any
leak can create an explosion hazard, a fire hazard, or can result in an
oxygen-deficient atmosphere. Such hazards can cause death, serious injury,
asphyxiation, anesthetic effects, and serious damage to equipment and
property.

Consult the cylinder, regulator and/or gas supplier for additional safety
WAR NING measures and ensure all staff are fully familiarized with all safety precautions.

36 7800/7850/7900 ICP-MS Hardware Maintenance Manual

2 Precautions
Storing Argon Safely

Storing Argon Safely

Argon, which is used to create the plasma, is a dangerous gas only if it

WAR NING displaces the air you are breathing or is mishandled in its storage cylinder.
Take the following precautions to prevent an explosion or suffocation hazard:
• Secure the cylinder valve caps and move the cylinder with an approved
handcart.
• Gas cylinders releases release gas through a pressure-relief device under
excessive heat. Always follow the gas supplier's recommendations for
storage and use temperatures.
• Make sure that cylinders stored outside are not in direct sunlight or
subjected to extreme temperatures. Place the cylinder on a level surface
above ground.
• Attach the argon hoses tightly to both the instrument and gas source. Route
the hoses so they cannot be damaged or crimped. Check for leaks using an
electronic leak detector or pressure test.
• Make sure that there is adequate ventilation around the gas cylinders,
especially if they are placed in a small storeroom.
