5977C GC/MSD Operating Manual 3

About This Manual

This manual contains information for operating and maintaining the Agilent

5977C Series Mass Selective Detector (MSD).

1“Introduction”

Chapter 1 describes general information about the 5977C Series MSDs, including

a hardware description, general safety warnings, and hydrogen safety

information.

2 “Installing 8890 GC Columns”

Chapter 2 shows you how to prepare a capillary column for use with the MSD,

install it in the GC oven, and connect it to the MSD using the GC/MSD interface.

3 “Installing Intuvo 9000 GC Columns”

Chapter 3 shows you how to install an Agilent Intuvo column, connect the flow

path from the inlet through the guard chip, bus components, and column to the

MS Tail assembly, and maintain the column guard chip.

4 “Operating in EI Mode”

Chapter 5 describes basic tasks such as setting temperatures, monitoring

pressures, tuning, venting, and pumpdown. Much of the information in this

chapter also applies to CI operation.

5 “Operating in CI Mode”

Chapter 6 describes additional tasks necessary to operate in CI mode.

6 “General Maintenance”

Chapter 7 describes maintenance procedures common to both EI and CI

instruments.

7 “CI Maintenance”

Chapter 8 describes maintenance procedures unique to CI MSDs.
