Instrument control and communication specifications
Injection volume range 0.1 to 100 µL, standard; 0.1 to 2000 µL, with
optional sample loop
Injector linearity > 0.999 coefficient of deviation (1 to 100 µL)
a. Sample carryover test description – Setup: Four vials (#1 = Pre-blank = mobile phase, #2 =
Carryover standard, #3 = Challenge sample, #4 = Post-blank = mobile phase). Procedure: 2
injections of #1, then 3 injections of #2, then 1 injection of #3, and finally, 3 injections of #4.
Test result: Percent carryover is determined by comparison of the (#4) post-blank injections to
the (#2) carryover standard.
