ICP 8300DV MALFUNCTION

is the problem soved or still persist , maybe i can help.

contact me gkm@gtsindia.com

Thanks GTS,

It has been solved. We discovered that the shear gas nozzle was Blocked with fine dust particles after we opened it up. so we cleaned and re-installed and all seems fine now. 

Thank you for offering to help.

Dust,...Dust,...Dust,...

I think this ICP is installed near by the mining area

Try a ESP at air intake, (Electro Static Filter)

all the best !! 

Ok we'll look into the ESP solution. Thanks.

Hello,

Comrades has anyone experienced a situation where ICP will not ignite plasma and seem not to spark at all during the ignition process? could you kindly share the steps taken to resolve this. ICP has been used to analyze 100 used oil samples already and abruptly after a qc failure, it seems not to be able to ignite plasma.

Regards,

Look for the High Voltage fuse, mostly the Fuse should be damaged, and hope that is the case.

if not above  then you will need expert help to replace the the High voltage Capacitor 

if not above then you will need expert to help to diagnose / repair the RF generator. (pretty big issue)

all the best. 

Thanks Comrade,

please where is this fuse located in the machine? I cannot see the location in the manual.

It is inside the machine. you may not have acess to the repair manual, you may need to get that from PE repair specialist. 

Ok GTS many thanks.
