Sample Volume and Injection Rate
The quality of your chromatogram can be greatly affected by the sample
volume and injection rate. These vary according to the type of Injector and
column you are using.
See also in section: Technical Tips, Choosing the right GC Injection technique,
on page 466. Shown below are some recommended sample volumes and
injection rates. Draw the appropriate volume of sample into your syringe and
inject at specified rate.

Inject the Test Sample
Use 1
μ
L of the Varian test sample for all detectors. In addition, if you are using a
PFPD, make a 1:20 dilution of the test sample in iso-octane. With the READY
light on at the GC and the appropriate volume of test sample in your injection
syringe, you are ready to make your injection. For automated injection of
samples, please refer to the CP-8400 AutoSampler section.
•
To inject your sample, insert the syringe needle into the Injector inlet, press
the syringe barrel against the Injector switch and depress it completely,
simultaneously pressing down the syringe plunger. Remove the syringe from
the Injector immediately.
•
The blue RUN light starts to blink until the analysis ends. The run may be
stopped by pressing the STOP
key.
•
Compare the resulting chromatogram with your known test chromatogram.
•
If you are analyzing the Varian Test Sample on a Varian Test Column, you
may compare your resulting chromatogram with the appropriate test
chromatogram in the Detector Test Chromatograms, on page 419. The
retention times will be close to those shown in the example chromatogram.
The peak heights may be considerably different.
•
Failure to duplicate the results you expected may indicate an installation,
operation or instrument problem. This problem must be corrected before
proceeding.
