General

Unless otherwise specified, statements in this manual apply to both the Agilent

5800 and 5900 ICP-OES instruments.

Operation of an Agilent ICP-OES involves the use of compressed gases, high

voltage radio frequency energy and hazardous materials including corrosive fluids

and flammable liquids. Careless, improper or unskilled use of this spectrometer or

chemicals used with it can cause death or serious injury to personnel, and/or

severe damage to equipment and property. Only trained personnel should use this

instrument.

The spectrometer incorporates interlocks and covers that are designed to prevent

inadvertent contact with any potential hazards. If the instrument is used in any

manner not specified by Agilent, this protection provided by the equipment may be

impaired. It is good practice to develop safe working habits that do not depend

upon the correct operation of the interlocks for safe operation. It is essential that

no interlock or cover is bypassed, damaged or removed.

The safety practices described below are provided to help the user operate the

instrument safely. Read each safety topic thoroughly before attempting to operate

the instrument and always operate the spectrometer in accordance with these

safety practices.

Safety Practices and Hazards

8 Agilent 5800 and 5900 ICP-OES User's Guide

Verifying Safe State

The following general safety precautions must be observed during all phases of

operation, maintenance and service of this instrument.

To ensure continued safety of the instrument after maintenance or service

procedures verify the instrument is returned to a safe state for the user. This

includes running performance checks to verify the instruments safety systems are

functioning correctly. Check the general condition of the instrument during

operation for wear or signs of corrosion that are likely to inhibit function or safety.

Failure to comply with these precautions or with specific warnings elsewhere in

this manual violates safety standards of design, manufacture, and intended use of

the instrument. Agilent Technologies assumes no liability for the customer’s

failure to comply with these requirements.

Plasma

The plasma is extremely hot (about 10,000 °C) and radiates dangerous levels of

radio frequency (RF) and ultraviolet (UV) energy. The work coil operates at 1,500 V

RMS and about 27 MHz. Exposure to the RF and UV energy can cause severe skin

damage and cataracts of the eyes, while close contact with the operating plasma

can result in severe heat burns to the skin, and an electrical discharge that can

jump a considerable distance and may cause death, severe electric shock or sub-

surface skin burns.

The plasma must never be operated unless:

the plasma compartment door is closed, with the door handle fully closed; and

the space above the chimney and air intake is clear of objects.

The shielding around the torch compartment is designed to reduce UV, visible and

RF radiation to safe levels while still permitting easy access to, as well as

installation and viewing of, the torch. The spectrometer has an interlock system

that is designed to extinguish the plasma if the mains supply fails, the handle on

the torch compartment door is opened, or the torch loading handle is open. Do not

attempt to bypass the interlock system.

Safety Practices and Hazards

Agilent 5800 and 5900 ICP-OES User's Guide 9

Before opening the torch compartment door, always extinguish the plasma by

pressing SHIFT + F5 on the keyboard or by clicking the ‘Plasma Off’ icon on the

ICP Expert software toolbar.

The torch and its surroundings remain hot for up to five minutes after the plasma

is extinguished. Touching this area before it has cooled sufficiently may result in

burns. Allow the torch and torch compartment to cool before carrying out any

work in this area, or wear heat-resistant gloves.

The plasma system has been carefully designed to operate safely and effectively

when using torches and related components that conform to Agilent’s design

criteria. Use of non-approved components in the plasma compartment may render

the system inoperative and/or hazardous. It may also invalidate the warranty on

the instrument. Use only torches and related components supplied or authorized

by Agilent.

Heat, Vapors and Fumes

Heat, ozone, vapors and fumes generated by the plasma can be hazardous and

must be extracted from the instrument by means of an exhaust system. Ensure

that an exhaust system of the appropriate type is fitted (as specified in the Site

Preparation Guide). The system must be vented to the outside air in accordance

with local regulations and never within the building. Regularly check the exhaust

system by smoke test to ensure that the exhaust system is functioning correctly.

The exhaust system must always be switched on before igniting the plasma.

Compressed Gas Hazards

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

(except that of air or oxygen) can result in an oxygen-deficient atmosphere, which

can cause asphyxiation. The area in which cylinders are stored and the area

surrounding the instrument must be adequately ventilated to prevent such gas

accumulations.

Safety Practices and Hazards

10 Agilent 5800 and 5900 ICP-OES User's Guide

Gas cylinders must be stored and handled strictly in accordance with local safety

codes and regulations. Cylinders must be used and stored only in a vertical

position and secured to an immovable structure or a properly constructed cylinder

stand. Move cylinders only by securing them to a properly constructed trolley.

Use only approved regulator and hose connectors (refer to the gas supplier’s

instructions). Keep gas cylinders cool and properly labeled. (All cylinders are fitted

with a pressure relief device that will rupture and empty the cylinder if the internal

pressure is raised above the safe limit by excessive temperatures.) Ensure that

you have the correct gas before connecting it to the instrument.

The primary gas used with the spectrometer is argon, which is the conductive gas

for the plasma. Argon or nitrogen can be used as the polychromator purge gas.

Other gases may be required for future options and accessories. Use only

‘instrument grade’ gases with your spectrometer.

If using cryogenic gases (for example, liquid argon), prevent severe burns by

wearing suitable protective clothing and gloves.

Electrical Hazards

The spectrometer system and some accessories contain electrical circuits,

devices and components operating at dangerous voltages. Contact with these

circuits, devices and components can cause death, serious injury or painful

electric shock. Panels or covers which are retained by screws on the spectrometer

and accessories may be opened only by Agilenttrained, Agilent-qualified or

Agilentapproved field service engineers (unless specified otherwise). Consult the

manuals or product labels supplied with your personal computer (PC), monitor,

printer and water-cooling system to determine which parts of those systems are

operator-accessible.

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

protective earth contact creates a shock hazard for the operator and can damage

the instrument. Likewise, interrupting the protective conductor inside or outside

the Agilent ICP-OES or defeating the power cord ground creates a shock hazard

for the operator and can damage the instrument.
