Introduction

Operating Principle

11

The gripper arm moves out of the needle station and the wash port snaps 
back in position.

12

The gripper arm replaces the vial, and returns to the home position. 
Simultaneously, the needle lowers into the seat.

13

The injection valve switches to the mainpass (main path) position.

Injection Sequence

Before the start of the injection sequence, and during an analysis, the injection 
valve is in the mainpass (main path) position (see 

Figure 4

 on page 19). In this 

position, the mobile phase flows through the autosamplers metering device, 
sample loop, and needle. This ensures that all parts in contact with sample are 
flushed during the run, thus minimizing carry-over.
