Guidelines for Programming with Different Injectors SSL Inlet (TRACE 1300/1310 GC) The AI 1310 /AS 1310 injects into the SSL inlet using the liquid band technique. The needle penetrates for almost its whole length without pre- and post-dwell time in order to avoid any possible heating, still injecting deep into the liner.
SSL Inlet (TRACE GC Ultra/FOCUS GC) The AI 1310/AS 1310 can inject in a hot SSL inlet using two distinct needle insertion modes: “Standard” and “Minimum”. • In Standard mode the needle penetrates for almost its whole length and a dwell time is programmed to provide needle heating.
