Installing the Agilent 8702E

Step 2. Set up Static-Safe Workstation

Both types, when used together, provide a significant level of ESD protection. Of the two, only the table-mat and wrist-strap combination provides adequate ESD protection when used alone.

To ensure user safety, the static-safe accessories must provide at least 1 MΩ of isolation from ground. Refer to Ta ble 1- 1 for information on ordering staticsafe accessories.

WARNING

These techniques for a static-safe work station should not be used when working on circuitry with a voltage potential greater than 500 volts.

Reducing ESD Damage

The following suggestions may help reduce ESD damage that occurs during testing and servicing operations.

• Personnel should be grounded with a resistor-isolated wrist strap before removing any assembly from the unit.

• Be sure all instruments are properly earth-grounded to prevent a buildup of static charge.

Performance Tests

Manual Performance Tests

This chapter contains procedures which test the electrical performance of the Agilent 8702E. If you are using an Agilent 8702E Option 011, perform the tests in Chapter 6, “Performance Tests – Option 011”. Before starting these procedures, allow the instrument to warm up for one hour.

Each procedure has a “Performance Test Record” that is located at the end of this chapter.

To obtain the same quality of performance testing that Agilent Technologies has administered at the factory, you must perform:

• the system verification procedures in Chapter 2, “Automated Verification” or

Chapter 3, “Manual Verification”.

•

of the performance test procedures in this chapter.

all

This quality of performance testing guarantees that the analyzer is performing within Certificate of Calibration for your analyzer if two conditions are met.

1

Your analyzer passes all the performed tests.

2

The equipment and standards that you used to perform the tests are traceable to a national standards institute.

NOTE

If you have a particular type of measurement application that does not use all of the analyzer’s measurement capabilities, you may ask your nearest Agilent Technologies Service Office for a subset of specifications that you want verified. However, this may create a potential for making incorrect measurements, by using a different application than what was specified in the procedures.

WARNING

These servicing instructions are for use by qualified personnel only. To avoid electrical shock, do not perform any servicing unless you are qualified to do so.

Disconnect the instrument from all voltage sources while it is being opened. The opening or removal of the covers or parts is likely to expose dangerous voltages.

The power cord is connected to internal capacitors that may remain live for five seconds after disconnecting the plug from its power supply.

1

Remove the instrument top cover. Using an 8 lb-inch torque wrench, verify that

semi-rigid cables connected to the sampler/mixer assemblies are tight. In

all

addition tighten any loose screws on the sampler/mixer assemblies (A4/5/6) and the pulse generator assembly (A7).

2

Remove the instrument bottom cover. Refer to Figure 4-19. Verify that cables W1, W31 and W32 are tight.
