The Ion Collector is composed of tube shaped suppressor and the collecting plate. The suppressor carries a positive potential which is slightly less than the anode potential. It is the purpose of the suppressor to prevent scattered ions which have lower nominal energy from arriving at the collector. This improves resolution at low detection rates. 

The electronic amplifier amplifies the current which is generated on the ion collector of the Mass Spectrometer (leak detector). The detection limit in the most sensitive range is approximately 1x10-15 A. Amplifier also monitors its own temperature, requesting a calibration every 10°F change.

To exchange the Preamp and Ion Collector, the four 8 mm bolts at the flange must be loosened. Thereafter, the preamp and ion collector may be retracted towards the rear. A 0.5 mm thick piece sealing disk is used for the flat seal.

Before installing the new preamp and ion collector, all sealing surfaces must be cleaned with a piece of cloth(or Kleenex) dipped in alcohol. Even though the seals may be reused several times, it is recommend the use of a new flat seal.


When exchanging the seal you must make absolutely sure that the sealing surface is not damaged. Scratches or marks may cause leaks.
