14. Vacuum Pump – TRACER 5i only

Description Air absorbs lower energy X-rays generated by the excitation of light elements. The vacuum removes
air from between a sample and the detector, allowing the maximum number of X-rays to be detected
and the assay to be more accurate. This relative measurement varies depending on temperature,
humidity, and air pressure.
Hose fitting
Pressure gauge
Rocker switch
Hose fitting
Power jack
Slide valve Pinhole
Collar
Instrument tube end Vacuum pump tube end

Process To operate the vacuum pump –
Step Action
1 Ensure the instrument is set to Vacuum. (Set Application to Spectrometer. Under Settings,
set Atmosphere to Vacuum.)
2 Remove the nose plate from the instrument.
3 Ensure the gridded window is installed. Using a clear window could damage the
instrument.
4 Secure the instrument so it is stable.
5 Connect the external AC adapter to the pump or install a charged battery pack.
6 Push the tube end with the slide valve onto the pump until it clicks and locks. Push the other
end onto the instrument hose fitting until it locks. See the figure below.
Note that to attach the hose to the instrument fitting, it may be necessary to pull back on
the collar on the end.
7 Ensure the slide valve is open (pushed forward so the pinhole is exposed).
8 Use the rocker switch to power on the pump.
9 Slide the valve closed (pulled back so the pinhole is covered). The detector chamber
evacuates.
10 When the pressure falls below 10 Torr on the pump (13 mbar on the instrument), the
instrument is ready to measure.
11 After all assays are complete, slide the valve open and use the rocker switch to turn off the
vacuum pump. To remove the hose from either device, pull back on the collar to unlock it
and gently pull.
030.0116.01.0 34 of 38
i
Before turning off the vacuum pump or removing the hose from either end, ensure the slide
valve is open. Failure to use the valve properly may cause damage to the window or the
expensive detector.
Monitoring Pressure is displayed –

pressure  On the pump (Torr).
 In the status bar of the instrument (mbar).
If the displayed pressure values differ, the value displayed on the pump is the most reliable.
AC adapter To connect the vacuum pump to the AC adapter –
Step Action
1 Ensure the analyzer is off.
2 With the supplied cord, connect the power supply to a 90-240V AC wall outlet.
3 Plug the DC output of the supply into the power jack on the face of the vacuum pump.
Battery note When the battery is connected while the pump operates from an external power supply, the
battery will not charge.
Removing The vacuum pump uses nickel metal hydride (NiMH) batteries. To remove the battery pack –
batteries
Step Action
1 Ensure that the vacuum pump is off and the external power supply is disconnected.
2 Remove the battery cover by rotating the three thumbscrews one-quarter turn counter-
clockwise.
3 Disconnect the plastic connector and remove the battery pack from the compartment.

Step Action
1 Ensure that the vacuum pump is off and the external power supply is disconnected.
2 Attach the connector labeled Discharge Terminal to the vacuum pump and place the
battery back into the compartment.
3 Replace the battery cover and lock it by turning the three thumbscrews clockwise.
Charging A fully charged battery pack will operate the vacuum pump for 2 to 4 hours. To charge the
batteries battery pack –
Step Action
1 Disconnect and remove the battery pack from the vacuum pump.
2 Verify the charge rate switch on the charger is set to 1.8A.
3 Connect the connector labeled Charge Terminal from the battery pack to the charger.
4 Connect the charger to a 90-240 AC outlet with the supplied power cord. The charger
orange LED indicates the battery is charging.
5 For a complete charge, recharge for 4 to 6 hours. The green LED indicates the charge is
complete.

15. Helium Flush – TRACER 5i only

Description Air absorbs lower energy X-rays generated by the excitation of light elements. The Helium flush
(part number 160.0201) replaces air from between a sample and the detector, allowing the
maximum number of X-rays to be detected and the assay to be more accurate.
Process To take a measurement with a Helium flush –
Step Action
1 Remove the nose plate from the instrument.
2 Peel off the window.
3 Secure the instrument, nose down. This increases efficiency by displacing heavy air with
lighter helium between the detector and the sample.
4 Attach the hose between the instrument and helium tank with a pressure regulator.
5 Set flow to one to one and a half liters per minute (1-1.5 l/min).
6 Take measurements.

16. Weld Adapter – S1 TITAN only
Description The weld adapter, part number 150.0140, provides a groove for aligning a weld bead or weld rod.
It reduces the X-ray beam to a 3 mm wide slot, allowing analysis of a defined small area.
However, it is not suitable for light element analysis.
Process To install a weld adapter –
Step Action
1 Unscrew and extend the screws,
slide the nose plate downward,
and remove it.
2 Place the weld adapter,

slide it upward,
and tighten the screws.
