3.8 Syringe Speed and Tubing Size Guidelines
The AS is capable of delivering at a maximum pressure of 690 kPa (100 psi) .
Several factors affect the system backpressure, including the syringe speed,
syringe size, and the IDs and lengths of the sample loop and the tubing used to
connect the inject port and the injection valve. Use the following formula to
determine the backpressure produced by these factors:
backpressure = cm of tubing x kPa (psi)/mL/min/cm (from Table 3-10 ) x mL/min
(from Table 3-11 or Table 3-12 )
Example: 30 cm of 0.254-mm ID tubing x 1.6 kPa/mL/min/cm x 2.40 mL/min
(5 mL syringe at speed 2) = 115 kPa
