I am looking for an official PM checklist from Agilent Technologies for an ICP-OES.

Assistant

An ICP-OES preventive-maintenance checklist usually begins before any wrench is turned: discuss customer issues, review the instrument logbook, externally inspect the system, check safety-related assemblies, and determine whether firmware or software updates are required.

The maintenance logic then moves through sample-introduction hardware, autosampler tubing, valve rotors if applicable, pumps, fittings, torch and optical-path components, and performance checks before and after the service.

The important pattern is documentation: record pre-PM performance, perform the mechanical and consumable work, run post-PM performance tests, restore configuration, document changes, and review results with the customer.

Same question for MP-AES.

Assistant

For MP-AES, the same service logic applies, but the checklist emphasizes items such as the cooling air inlet filter, plasma window, torch condition, nebulizer and spray chamber inspection, sample-introduction configuration, instrument control settings, and performance reports.

The structure is familiar to any analytical-service workflow: preserve settings, inspect, replace wear parts, clean or replace flow-path components, run performance tests, reset maintenance counters where applicable, and produce a service record that is useful for the lab, the customer, and future troubleshooting.
