Shimadzu Europe - PTV-2010 Injector

With the PTV-2010 Shimadzu offers a versatile tool for the analyst. The PTV-2010 can be operated in temperature programmable mode, where a split ratio can be used like in a split/splitless injector. Another operation mode is the On-column injection mode, where the complete sample is transferred to the column. In addition to the traditional method where the column is installed inside the injector and the needle is injected into the column, Shimadzu also offers the possibility to use the “Simple On-Column” technique. In this mode a special liner is used inside the injector. Using this liner any column ID from 0.1 to 0.53mm can be directly connected to the liner. The column sticks inside the liner reduction and is additionally tightened with a graphite ferrule on the injector capillary adapter. This simplifies the column mounting significantly and gas tightness even with hydrogen as carrier gas in no problem anymore.
