The mass spectrometer is shipped with a dry pump with two vacuum ports. Install the pump on the floor below the workbench. If the workbench has no space below it, place the pump at the end of the workbench. Before you place the pump, Thermo Fisher Scientific strongly recommends that you consider the information contained in Vibration. Because of the low noise level of 57 dB(A), the dry pump is shipped without a noise reduction cover.
