This is the Quick Start Guide for standard operation of a VSP-G1 unit. For first time operators, detailed information or troubleshooting, please refer to the User's Manual.
See the "Operating the system" chapter within the VSP-G1 User's Manual for a more detailed description of the standard procedure using a basic setup as a guide.
Prepare the system for production
- Design/draw your flow diagram.
- Assemble the setup according to your specifications. (Ensure that the reactor is closed and mounted [hyperlink to Mounting the reactor in the Setup chapter of the User's Manual] correctly!)
- Check the connections.
- Check the system for leak tightness and make adjustments if necessary. (See leak tightness protocol [hyperlink]) [insert note about pressure safety in the right margin here]
Start nanoparticle production
- Check for leaks if any changes were made to the system (see step 4 of Prepare the system for production).
- Power up all systems.
- Ensure that the path to the exhaust is clear.
- Begin gas flow.
- Set target voltage and current using the dials on the VSP-G1.
- Press the start button to begin production.

Remove your sample
When the deposition system is full or when you’ve produced the desired amount of nanoparticles,
- Stop particle production.
- Flush the system [hyperlink] (9 x τ).
- Stop the gas flow.
- Take out your sample following the procedure for your deposition system.
