BioSafety Requirements Return to checklist. The site must not be designated BioSafety Level 3 (BSL-3) or BioSafety Level 4 (BSL-4). AB SCIEX does not install, service, or repair AB SCIEX mass spectrometers in areas designated BSL-3 or BSL-4. Sound Pressure Level Return to checklist. Sound Pressure Value TM Average sound pressure level for the mass spectrometer, roughing pump, and SelexION technology 69 dBA Note: Sound levels are for the 5600+ or 6600 system without the optional enclosure. A sound pressure level of 85 dBA above a reference sound pressure of 20 μPa is at present regarded by many authorities as the threshold at which a hazard may be caused. Special means, such as the use of protective ear pieces, can make a higher sound pressure level non-hazardous to the operator. AB SCIEX recommends that the sound pressure level be measured or calculated by the user both at the operator's position in normal use and at whatever point 1 m from the enclosure of the equipment has the highest sound pressure level.
