GC Gas Control and Sample Introduction
This webcast will look at how gases are delivered to the instrument and detector, the importance of gas cleanliness, the effect of different flow modes, and how the most common inlets function.
GC Inlet Maintenance - Split Vent Trap
The split vent trap is an impregnated carbon filter which serves two purposes. Firstly, it protects carrier gas regulation components (for example, the back-pressure regulator which is housed after the split line) in the short term from performance-degrading perturbations because of injection, and in the long term from accumulation of sample residues that also can affect performance.
