3 Installing Intuvo 9000 GC Column
The GC/MS Interface for a 9000 GC
7000/7010 Series TQ GC/MS Operating Manual 71
The 9000 GC/MS Tail is heated by an electric cartridge heater. The heater is
powered and controlled by a heated zone of the 9000 GC. The 9000 GC/MS Tail
temperature can be set from the Agilent MassHunter GC/MS Acquisition
software or from the GC. A sensor (thermocouple) in the interface monitors the
temperature.
The GC/MS interface tip seal assembly is required when using the EI XTR source
or the HES.
The 9000 GC/MS Tail should be operated in the 250 to 350 C range. Subject to
that restriction, the GC/MS interface temperature should be slightly higher than
the column temperature.
