Answer #1

When the valve is in the load position, the fixed volume sample loop is washed and loaded with fresh sample from a syringe. Excess from the washings is sent to the waste. To inject the contents of the sample loop, the valve is rotated 60° counterclockwise. In the inject position, solvent under high pressure, flowing from the pump to the column, pushes the contents of the sample loop towards the column. The reproducibility of injections made using the injection valve and fixed volume loop is very good.
