Page 8 of 3 DESORBER SEAL CHECK PURPOSE To verify that when the IONSCAN-LS performs an analysis and the desorber stage moves up and seals the sample substrate between the desorber and the inlet, a proper seal is obtained. BACKGROUND To analyze a sample, the sample substrate is inserted into the tray on the front of instrument and the slide is moved to the right to introduce the sample into the analyzer. When the analysis cycle starts, the desorber moves up and seals the sample between the desorber heater and the IMS inlet. As the sample is heated the sample carrier gas (clean dry air) sweeps the desorbed vapors into the IMS detector. In order to ensure efficient sample transfer the sample should be properly sealed between the desorber and the inlet to ensure no air escapes out the side. TEST EQUIPMENT LIST. Teflon filter card assembly with standard Teflon filter (p/n 68340) PROCEDURE This test is performed in negative ion mode only.. Allow IONSCAN-LS unit to come ready.. Assemble a new Teflon filter, card and ring. 3. Insert filter card into IONSCAN and analyze. 4. After the analysis, check for seal on bottom of Teflon filter. 5. Record below if the seal on the bottom of Teflon filter is even and centered on the filter. RESULTS Properly Centered Imprint Improperly Centered Imprint Is the imprint of seal on the bottom of Teflon filter (shown in gray) even and centered on the filter as shown in the figure above?

Page 9 of 3 NOISE CHECK PURPOSE To verify the IONSCAN-LS detector is operating within the defined acceptance limits for system noise. BACKGROUND Noise is an important characteristic that specifies a detector s performance. Low noise level is especially important when analyzing compounds at low trace levels. IONSCAN detector noise primarily originates from micro-phonic noise (motion of guard grid relative to collector plate) and preamp noise (resistance noise). The root mean square noise is determined by using a built in Ionscan Manager Software function to measure the root mean square noise in a defined drift time interval. RMS Amp RMS (root mean square) amplitude of the signal over all segments of the Seg Range, in the drift time interval specified. P-P Amp Displays the peak-to-peak amplitude of all segments of the range (difference between maximum and minimum of all segments). TEST EQUIPMENT LIST. Instrument Manager Software. (IM Software). PROCEDURE Negative Ion Mode. With slide tray down run three blank samples.. Acquire sample plasmagram with IM software. 3.

Acquire sample plasmagram with IM software. 3. With built in IM software function, measure RMS and Peak to Peak noise from 5.0 5.3 msec and record in table. RESULTS Specified Tolerance Negative Ion Mode Positive Ion Mode Time Interval 5.0 5.3 msec 5.0 5.3 msec Recorded RMS noise < 3 du Peak to Peak noise < 5 du Are noise levels in negative ion mode within specified tolerances? Are noise levels in positive ion mode within specified tolerances?
Page 0 of 3 CALIBRANT ION CHECK PURPOSE To verify that a calibrant peak is present in the correct position in both positive and negative modes. BACKGROUND After the IONSCAN unit has warmed up and temperatures have stabilized, the unit searches for the presence of the calibrant peak before the unit goes into READY mode. The IONSCAN-LS unit uses the calibrant peak position to determine the drift times of all analyte peaks which have been programmed in based on the equation below: t anal d K K o = anal t o cal cal d wheret anal d calibrant peak, K anal o and calibrant peaks. is the expected drift time of the analyte ion, t cal and K cal o d is measured drift time of the are the programmed reduced ion mobility values of the analyte Parameters which effect the calibrant ion drift time are drift tube temperature, inlet temperature, drift flow rate, ambient atmospheric pressure and humidity level of the drift gas. All these parameters are either controlled or compensated for. The instrument controls drift tube and inlet temperature and drift flow. An air purification cartridge provides clean dry air for the instrument to use. An absolute pressure transducer determines the absolute pressure that is used to determine the expected position of calibrant. The IONSCAN-LS is designed to operate only when the calibrant peak is identified by its internal algorithm. This test will verify that the calibrant algorithm is properly programmed in and the IONSCAN-LS is detecting it within manufacturer s specifications. PROCEDURE Negative Ion Mode. Record in the table below if the instrument is in READY mode.. Note calibrant installed in instrument. 3. From configuration file, note calibrant Ko. 4.

Page of 3 REACTANT ION CHECK PURPOSE To verify that reactant peaks are present in the correct position in the negative mode. BACKGROUND In the negative mode, a reactant is added via a diffusion source in the sample path to aid in the ionization process. Since the IONSCAN-LS does not actively monitor the reactant level, as it does the calibrant, it is necessary to verify the level to establish that the instrument is operating within specifications. This is done by evaluating the reactant level at the beginning and end of a series of consecutive runs. The IONSCAN-LS must maintain a minimum level over the course of the analyses. PROCEDURE Negative Ion Mode Only. Run a blank sample with no substrate present.. Scroll through segments and using the gaussian fit function, find the maximum amplitude of the reactant peak nearest 7.0ms. 3. Run 5 consecutive analyses (starting each analysis as soon as the IONSCAN-LS comes READY) with no substrate present. 4. On the last sample, scroll through segments and using the gaussian fit function, find the maximum amplitude of the reactant peak nearest 7.0ms. Initial Reactant Amplitude Reactant Amplitude after Sample series. Maximum Reactant Amplitude Amplitude Threshold 600 du 00 du Max Amp above threshold?

Page 4 of 3 INJECTION REPEATABILITY CHECK PURPOSE To verify IONSCAN-LS reproducibility associated with the analysis of sample aliquots is within acceptable limits. BACKGROUND The injection volume precision is based on a sequence of runs where a TNT standard is used in negative mode and diazepam standard is used in positive ion mode. These standards are injected 5 times, always with the same volume. The average cumulative amplitudes are determined for each sample and the relative standard deviation of the average is calculated for positive and negative mode. TEST EQUIPMENT LIST.

Page 5 of 3 DETECTOR LINEARITY CHECK PURPOSE To verify the detector shows a linear response over a working range. BACKGROUND Detectors become non-linear when the amount of the test compound increases above a certain limit. The linearity test is based on a sequence of runs where a TNT solution or Diazepam solution is injected several times from vials containing different concentrations using the same injection volume. When the cumulative amplitudes associated with each peak are plotted against the concentrations, the points should lie on a straight line. The correlation of this calibration curve is used as one criterion to measure detector linearity. Five standards will be analyzed to evaluate linearity. TEST EQUIPMENT LIST.

Page 0 of 3 APPENDIX In this appendix the documentation of mathematical or statistical formulas used in the tests described in the previous chapters are discussed. NOISE ANALYSIS During an analysis, multiple scans are co-added to define a segment of analysis and the total number of segments defined by the analysis time. For example a typical scan period is 0 msec, 0 scans are co-added to define segment of analysis (0.4 sec) and the analysis time is 8 seconds giving 0 segments of analysis. The IM3 software noise analysis feature calculates signal and peak-to-peak amplitude data in the specified drift time interval. A drift time interval at the beginning of the analysis is selected which is free of peaks. The following data is then displayed in the top left corner of the plasmagram: Seg Range: RMS Amp: P-P Amp: Max P-P Seg: Max P-P Amp: Range of segments used in the calculations. RMS (root mean square) amplitude of the signal over all segments of the Seg Range, in the drift time interval specified. Displays the peak-to-peak amplitude of all segments of the range (difference between maximum and minimum of all segments). Specifies the segment with the highest peak-to-peak amplitude.
