Gas Chromatograph (SP-3400)

Self-diagnostic function:
1) Core tests;
2) Automatic tests;
3) Extended tests;
4) Basic tests;
Monitor the status of GC continuously. Once finding faults, it'll display the information and show the wrong zone and the settling method.

Self-protective function:
1) Overrun temperature protection;
2) Short circuit hint;
3) TCD filament protection;
4) FID flameout hint;
5) PFD exposed-light protection;
6) Keyboard locking with password; etc., ensuring normal running.

Simple operation, powerful automation:
1) All parameters can be entered through keyboard with prompt function;
2) 4 sets of complete chromatography analysis methods can be stored and recalled automatically;
3) An autosampler can be connected;
4) Parameters can be modified instantly while the GC is running;
5) Chromatography analysis method can be activated for 99 times repeatedly at the same time. It's especially suitable for unattended operation.

More choices of injectors:
1) On- Column Injector for Packed Column;
2) Flash Vaporization Injector for Packed Column
3) Automatic or manual gas inject valve;
4) Headspace sampler;
5) Thermal desorption system
6) Split/Splitless Capillary Injector; Three Injectors or two Split/Splitless Capillary Injectors can be fixed on GC.

More choices of detectors:
1) TCD; 2) FID; 3) ECD; 4) FPD; 5) TSD
Maximum of two TCDs or three different kinds of detectors can be installed.

Reactor: 1) Internal; 2) external

Time programming of detectors:
Each of detectors has 5-ramp programmable time control. Output-signal, attenuation range, and polarity can be set automatically.

Time programming of external events:
Providing 4 external events with 20-ramp programmable time control. The optional GC relays may be used to automate valves, operate split/splitless capillary injectors, drive auxiliary devices, or switch signals between detector A and detector B in a run.
