Process for the cleaning of ion guide electrodes in a laser desorption ion source in mass spectroscopy

摘要

The cleaning plate (1) has cleaning scrubber inserts (2,3) that extend. The process is started by directing a laser onto a light sensitive element (4). The unit has a transponder (5) and a bar code (6). Mirrors (7-9) set at different angles are used in a checking procedure as part of a video system of a mass spectrometer.
