Site Preparation Checklist

Thank you for purchasing an Agilent instrument. To get you started and to assure a successful and
timely installation, please refer to this specification or set of requirements.
Correct site preparation is the key first step in ensuring that your instruments and software systems
operate reliably over an extended lifetime. This document is an information guide AND checklist
prepared for you that outlines the supplies, consumables, space and utility requirements for your
equipment for your site.

Customer Responsibilities
Make sure your site meets the following prior specifications before the installation date.
For details, see specific sections within this checklist, including:
‰ The necessary laboratory or bench space is available
‰ The environmental conditions for the lab as well as laboratory gases and plumbing
‰ The power requirements related to the product (e.g., number & location of electrical outlets)
‰ The required operating supplies necessary for the product and installation
‰ Please consult Other Requirements section below for other product-specific information.
‰ Please follow the site preparation instructions provided in Site Preparation Guide, part number
G8460-90000. This document is only an overview of the main requirements.
‰ Agilent Technologies service providers will not install your Agilent 700 ICP-OES system until an
adequate exhaust system is present and functioning. See Environmental Conditions section.
If Agilent is delivering installation and familiarization services, users of the instrument
should be present throughout these services; otherwise, they will miss important
operational, maintenance and safety information.
‰ This checklist includes information on these products: G8460AA, G8461AA, G8462AA, G8463AA,
G8464AA, G8465AA, G8466AA, G8467AA, G8468AA, G8469AA and G8470AA.

Important Customer Information


1. If you have questions or problems in providing anything described as a Customer Responsibilities
above, please contact your local Agilent or partner support/service organization for assistance
prior to delivery. In addition, Agilent and/or its partners reserve the right to reschedule the
installation dependent upon the readiness of your laboratory.
2. Should your site not be ready for whatever reasons, please contact Agilent as soon as possible to
re-arrange any services that have been purchased.
3. Other optional services such as additional training, operational qualification (OQ) and
consultation for user-specific applications may also be provided at the time of installation when
ordered with the system, but should be contracted separately.

Dimensions and Weight

Identify the laboratory bench space before your system arrives based on the table below.
Pay special attention to the total height and total weight requirements for all system components you
have ordered and avoid bench space with overhanging shelves. Also pay special attention to the total
weight of the modules you have ordered to ensure your laboratory bench can support this weight.
Special Notes
1. The Agilent 700 Series ICP-OES, its data system and accessories will be delivered to your site in
large and small shipping containers. Note the size of the largest shipping container below.
2. The containers will be delivered in a large truck. You must furnish a forklift, or other suitable
lifting device, and make arrangements to unload the truck and transport the containers to your
site. All doorways, hallways, floors and elevators must be able to accommodate the largest,
heaviest container. Do not open any of the shipping containers unless a representative of Agilent
Technologies is present.

Environmental Conditions

Operating your instrument within the recommended temperature ranges insures optimum instrument
performance and lifetime.
Special Notes
1. Performance can be affected by sources of heat and cold (e.g., direct sunlight, heating/cooling
from air conditioning outlets, drafts and/or vibrations). The site’s ambient temperature
conditions must be stable for optimum performance, It needs to be held constant to within ±2 °C
2. Maximum altitude up to 3050 m.
3. Recommended exhaust and venting requirements include:
6.0 m3/min minimum (200 ft3/min).
Exhaust flow must be continuous as long as the plasma is ON.
Exhaust flow must be stable: maximum fluctuation of ±5% of target flow.
4. User safety requires that the exhaust gases from the plasma be vented externally to the building
and not re-circulated by the environmental control system. Health hazards include chemical
toxicity of solvents and samples.
5. The customer is responsible for supplying the ductwork between the instrument and the lab
extraction system.

Power Consumption

Special Notes
1. If a computer system is supplied with your instrument, be sure to account for those electrical
outlets.
2. Installation requires an isolated, noise free ground.
3. Instrument ships with NEMA L6-30P twist lock power plug for the following countries: Japan,
Korea, Taiwan, US, and all Americas (North, Central and South American countries).
4. Instrument ships with IEC 60309 power plug for all other counties.
5. Do not use extension cords with Agilent Technologies equipment. They cannot provide enough
power to the system and can be a safety hazard. If the desired location of equipment does not
permit its standard power cord to reach an electrical outlet, your electrician should install
additional outlets. Otherwise, you should relocate the equipment closer to existing electrical
outlets.

Cooling Water Requirements

Special Notes
1. The preferred cooling system is the Agilent Chiller (G8481A), filled with Poly-Clear Fluid (G3292-
80010).
2. If you are not using the preferred system, and another type of water re-circulator is used, the
reservoir should be filled with distilled water having a conductance in the range of 50 to 150 μs.
3. Distilled water will keep the system clean. Do not use tap water as it will contaminate the system
and do not use deionized water as it will corrode the system.
