PCOC EPC/MPC TROUBLESHOOTING

The Programmable Cool On Column (PCOC) injection port is designed to allow the injection syringe to
admit sample directly into the capillary column(320, 200, 100 micron id). This is accomplished by the
use of an insert which serves to align the syringe with the capillary column and make a seal with both
the column and the syringe needle. Maximum sample volumes are smaller compared with other inlets,
typically in the range of 0.5 microlitre to 2.0 microlitre. The ideal volume depends on the column id, the
compatibility of the sample solvent and the stationary phyase, sample concentration, stationary phase
film thickness, and column flow rate. Usually the smaller the sample the better, providing that sensitivity
requirements are met.
The Programmable Cool On Column injection port operates by forward pressure control of the inlet and
the inclusion of a preset foward pressure contolled septum purge vent carries septum bleed out to vent.
A typical example of pressure setting and associated flows would be: 50psi for the carrier with a setting
of 10 to 20psi in the injection port. This will also yeild a 10 to 20 ml/min septum purge vent flow.
