Manually controlled inlet
The manually controlled PCOC inlet has a forward pressure regulator (FPR)
that controls the column flow rate. In addition, a forward pressure regulator
with a fixed restrictor (SPR) is used to provide a nominal septum purge flow
rate of 15.0 mL/min. The sample is deposited directly into a capillary column
for analysis.
