The temperature of the liner can be held below or above the boiling point of
the carrier solvent.
Septumless head installed
In the septumless head, the flows are the same as in the septum head, except
the septum purge vent is bypassed directly to the carrier flow through the
gang fitting on the flow manifold. Flow control is the same as for the septum
head. See Figure 240-2.
