Safety considerations
Some reagents and samples used with Waters instruments and devices can
pose chemical, biological, and radiological hazards. You must know the
potentially hazardous effects of all substances you work with. Always follow
Good Laboratory Practice, and consult your organization’s safety
representative for guidance.
When you develop methods, follow the “Protocol for the Adoption of Analytical
Methods in the Clinical Chemistry Laboratory,” American Journal of Medical
Technology, 44, 1, pages 30–37 (1978). This protocol addresses good operating
procedures and the techniques necessary to validate system and method
performance.

Considerations specific to the SYNAPT G2 MS system
Solvent leakage hazard
The source exhaust system is designed to be robust and leak-tight. Waters
recommends you perform a hazard analysis, assuming a maximum leak into
the laboratory atmosphere of 10% LC eluate.
Flammable solvents hazard
Never let the nitrogen supply pressure fall below 400 kPa (4 bar, 58 psi)
during analyses that require flammable solvents. Connect to the LC output
with a gas-fail connector to stop the LC solvent if the nitrogen supply fails.
Warning:
• To confirm the integrity of the source exhaust system, renew
the source O-rings at intervals not exceeding one year.
• To avoid chemical degradation of the source O-rings, which can
withstand exposure only to certain solvents (see “Solvents used
to prepare mobile phases” on page C-3), determine whether any
solvents you use that are not listed are chemically compatible
with the composition of the O-rings.
Warning: To prevent the ignition of accumulated solvent vapors inside
the source, maintain a continuous flow of nitrogen through the source
whenever significant amounts of flammable solvents are used during
instrument operation.
vi
High temperature hazard
Mass spectrometer high temperature hazard
Warning: To avoid burn injuries, avoid touching the source enclosure
with your hand when operating or servicing the instrument.
Source ion block assembly
vii
Hazards associated with removing an instrument from service
When you remove the instrument from use to repair or dispose of it, you must
decontaminate all of its vacuum areas. These are the areas in which you can
expect to encounter the highest levels of contamination:
• Source interior
• Waste tubing
• Exhaust system
• Rotary pump oil (where applicable)
The need to decontaminate other vacuum areas of the instrument depends on
the kinds of samples the instrument analyzed and their levels of
concentration. Do not dispose of the instrument or return it to Waters for
repair until the authority responsible for approving its removal from the
premises specifies the extent of decontamination required and the level of
residual contamination permissible. Management must also prescribe the
method of decontamination to be used and the appropriate protection for
personnel undertaking the decontamination process.
You must handle items such as syringes, fused silica lines, and borosilicate
tips used to carry sample into the source area in accordance with laboratory
procedures for contaminated vessels and sharps. To avoid contamination by
carcinogenic, toxic, or biohazardous substances, you must wear
chemical-resistant gloves when handling or disposing of used oil.
Safety advisories
Consult Appendix A for a comprehensive list of warning and caution
advisories.
Warning: To avoid personal contamination with
biohazardous or toxic materials, wear chemical-resistant
gloves during all phases of instrument decontamination.
Warning: To avoid puncture injuries, handle syringes, fused silica lines,
and borosilicate tips with care.

Operating this instrument
When operating this instrument, follow standard quality-control (QC)
procedures and the guidelines presented in this section.
Applicable symbols
Audience and purpose
This guide is for operators of varying levels of experience. It gives an overview
of the instrument, and explains how to prepare it, change its modes of
operation, and maintain it.
Intended use
Waters designed this instrument to be used as a research tool to deliver
authenticated, exact-mass measurement. It is not for use in diagnostic
procedures.
Symbol Definition
Confirms that a manufactured product complies
with all applicable European Community
directives
Australia C-Tick EMC Compliant
Confirms that a manufactured product complies
with all applicable United States and Canadian
safety requirements
This product has been tested to the requirements
of CAN/CSA-C22.2 No. 61010-1, second edition,
including Amendment 1, or a later version of the
same standard incorporating the same level of
testing requirements
ABN 49 065 444 751
ix
Calibrating
To calibrate LC systems, follow acceptable calibration methods using at least
five standards to generate a standard curve. The concentration range for
standards should include the entire range of QC samples, typical specimens,
and atypical specimens.
When calibrating mass spectrometers, consult the calibration section of the
operator’s guide for the instrument you are calibrating. In cases where an
overview and maintenance guide, not operator’s guide, accompanies the
instrument, consult the instrument’s online Help system for calibration
instructions.
Quality control
Routinely run three QC samples that represent subnormal, normal, and
above-normal levels of a compound. Ensure that QC sample results fall within
an acceptable range, and evaluate precision from day to day and run to run.
Data collected when QC samples are out of range might not be valid. Do not
report these data until you are certain that the instrument performs
satisfactorily.
ISM classification
ISM Classification: ISM Group 1 Class A
This classification has been assigned in accordance with CISPR 11 Industrial
Scientific and Medical (ISM) instruments requirements. Group 1 products
apply to intentionally generated and/or used conductively coupled
radio-frequency energy that is necessary for the internal functioning of the
equipment. Class A products are suitable for use in commercial, (that is,
nonresidential) locations and can be directly connected to a low voltage,
power-supply network.
