The Agilent 5973 Mass Selective Detector is a transmission quadrupole mass spectrometer for qualitative and quantitative analysis, which uses electron ionization (EI), positive chemical ionization (PCI), and negative chemical ionization (NCI).
This step-by-step video demonstrates how to replace a filament in an Agilent 5973 MSD. One caution – before attempting any repairs yourself, you should confirm how any existing warranty may be affected. And of course, consider your time and learning curve; you can always contact GenTech for all your service needs.
