Main Machine Structural Diagram II (Right) 2.5 Column box Column box of GC9310 gas chromatography is huge in volume, and can install double packed column or capillary column to be quick in temperature up and down. This machine adopts motor with lowered noise, remains steady with little vibration during operation and is installed with auto back-door equipment.

2.7 Gas path controlling system Carrier gas flow path of GC9310 gas chromatography adopts a structure of double packed column flow paths in addition to a set of independent capillary split adjusting valves. Based on requirements, capillary analyzing flow path can be installed and two flow paths for different carrier gases can be installed at the same time.

2.7.2 Hydrogen and Air Flow Path Auxiliary air path of GC9310 gas chromatography has air and hydrogen, installed on upper left of the apparatus. Scale-type needle valve can be adopted to adjust hydrogen and air flow. Hydrogen and air needle valve is provided with stable input pressure by upstream pressure stabilizing valve. Output flow of hydrogen and air needle valve can be found in relative table of scale-flow curve.
can close temperature controller automatically. Moreover, many chromatography workstations can be selected to connect. This controller can also adopt microcomputer to select range and polarity of FID amplifier, set up and display TCD current. III Keyboard and Operation 1 Panel and Keyboard Configurations: The instrument has a 320*240 LCD display and an easy-to-use panel.

Temperature programming When the instrument has been turned on, press the Start key to enter the temperature control system. If temperature programming contents has been edited in the instrument (The temperature programming contents will be invalid if the level 1 temperature ramp speed is 0!), press the Start key for the instrument to start temperature programming control when the “Ready”...

Notice: The setting of parameters is the same as the setting for temperature in 3.1.1. Notice: The 4 channels of external control output are odd level output disconnection status, even level output closing status; and output disconnection status if no time programming is executed. Notice: If the fourth time programming is entirely set to be 00, the output of the fourth external output event is the start signal of 0.6 second (outputted synchronously with starting analysis).

“No sample baseline” means that the baseline data recorded for a period of time after the Enter key is pressed when the cursor stays at No sample baseline; and press the End key to stop recording the no sample baseline. The maximum recording time of no sample baseline is 8 hours and the records are saved in the instrument.

Notice: The setting of parameters is the same as the setting for temperature in 2.1.1. Notice: The parameter is valid only when the instrument has an EPC control module. SETTING OPERATION FILES SCREENSAVERS AUTOMATIC SAMPLE FEEDING TIME AND CLOCK Notice: The setting of parameters is the same as the setting for temperature in 2.1.1. Notice: You must select “No automatic sample feeder”...

“With automatic sample feeder” or “Without automatic sample feeder” indicates whether an automatic sample feeder has been installed or not. “Sample feeding: 0006 times” indicates that the system will perform 6 times of sample feeding. If the value is 0, no automatic sample feeding will be performed; if the value is 9999, the instrument will perform unlimited times of automatic sample feeding until the feeding is manually stopped.

The function is used to help you by automatically calculation of the gas flow rate being measured. Press the Menu key to highlight the setting of soap bubble flow-meter reading: 10ml, and enter the value of the soap bubble flow-meter to be read from with the numeral keys and press the Enter ke0079 for confirmation.
Press the Enter key to turn off temperature control. Now, you can hear the sound of relay releasing inside the instrument, and the rear door will be automatically opened for cooling. 4.11 V IEW VERSION When the instrument has been turned on, press the Ver. key to enter the electrical part version display status The screen displays the versions of the electrical parts for use in future maintenance activities.
When conducting high flexibility operation, column temperature selected should be lower. ~ Pressure of external air source input to GC9310 should be at 343000Pa (equivalent to 3.5kg/cm ~6kg/cm 5kg/cm ), pressure of air input is at 294000Pa~588000Pa (equivalent to 3kg/cm pressure of hydrogen input should be at 196000Pa ~...
