You can also estimate the Analysis time without making a run. By adding the GC oven program
duration and the duration of any post-run programs, you can get close to the true cycle time.
Also consider time for data processing. While in most cases data processing is not a problem, a
very busy Data system may need extra time between samples.
To validate the Analysis time, look at the GC run time. The Analysis time cannot be less than the
total run time. Then look at the GC post run program duration. The Analysis time cannot be less
than the total run time plus the post run program duration.
Finally, consider that the GC cooling time may vary according to room temperature: the higher the
room temperature is the more time is needed for the GC cooling time; typically it implies a shorter
time during winter seasons and a longer time during summer seasons. Therefore, the analysis time
should be set according to the worst scenario (summer season).

The following parameters can be viewed/edited:
• Enrichment Cycle(s): the number of enrichments in the injection cycle. The enrichment
allows the user to inject a higher quantity of sample.
• NOTE. It is only possible to enrich the sample by multiple injections if the gas
chromatograph can support this feature by a proper trapping system.
• Dwell Between Injections: delay time between any enrichment, to allow the headspace
vial to equilibrate.

Warning
Only for HT2000HT. Standard version syringe installed in the Standard syringe warmer
assembly can not work at temperature higher than 150°C. Do not set higher temperatures. The
system can be seriously damaged.
