The GC PAL and Combi PAL from CTC Analytics are flexible and expanded sample introduction tools that can meet the diverse application requirements in laboratories. These samplers offer a wide range of functionalities and customizable processes to accommodate specific situations. They support various liquid injection volumes, injection styles, and also enable automated solid-phase micro-extraction, heated headspace sampling, continuous flow sampling, and other approaches.
This document provides a technical overview of integrating CTC Analytics samplers, specifically the GC PAL and Combi PAL, into the Agilent GC/MSD ChemStation G1701DA (D.03 SP1) software. It details how these systems offer flexible sample introduction tools, including liquid injection, automated SPME, headspace sampling, and continuous flow sampling.
The guide explains how to configure the CTC as an injection source within the ChemStation, access CTC parameters via the instrument display, and utilize specific features such as overlapped injections to improve throughput. It also covers setting up injection methods, defining tray and plate configurations for various vial sizes, and managing sample sequences with custom injection volumes.
