D
irect Probe sample analysis can be accomplished on the
Agilent 5973 & 5975 MSD with the new Direct Probe
Inlet System from Scientific Instrument Services
TM
. The
probe inlet mounts onto the GC/MS transfer line port and uses an
indexed probe introduction guide to permit the direct insertion and
removal of the probe into the MSD source without venting the MSD
or scoring the probe rod. The probe can be either heated ballisti-
cally at ramp rates in excess of 500°C per minute or can be tem-
perature programmed with up to 25 ramp rate levels. The probe
temperatures, ramp rates, hold times, start and stop are all PC con-
trolled and fully integrated with the Agilent ChemStation software.
This permits the storage of the probe analysis parameters in the
sample data files and the method files.
PC Window for the Control of the SIS Direct Probe
for the Agilent 5973 & 5975 MSD
The user interface for the control and monitoring of the direct
probe for the Agilent 5973 & 5975 probe is via software on the PC.
This window is fully integrated with the Agilent ChemStation soft-
ware. The PC software controls the direct probe electronics con-
sole via an RS232 interface to download the values entered via the
PC window to control the actual temperature of the probe. The
probe can be operated in the ballistic mode with ramp rates greater
than 500 degrees per minute. In the programmable mode, the user
inputs the ramp rate, the final temperature and the duration time
(hold time). Temperature program rates up to 400° per minute can
be used to control the temperature of the probe between 25 and
450 °C. Up to 25 levels of programmable ramping steps are per-
mitted through this PC interface. A visual graphic presentation of
the temperature profile indicates the ramp and hold temperatures
as a function of time. In addition, the status portion of the screen
shows the probe status, time of analysis, the target and actual
probe temperatures and the power requirements to heat the probe
(heating load).
The probe inlet system (Part #HPP7) includes the direct probe,
the probe inlet, probe controller, software, vacuum pump, tools and
other accessories.
