In order to avoid sample carry-over when switching techniques for loading
samples, wash the valve with buffer between the loading of two different
samples. For example, when switching from loading sample in the loop to
loading sample directly onto the column with the valve in Direct inject position.
Note:
When using a pump for sample application, it is important to prime inlets and purge the
pump before using the pump to load the sample. See further instructions in Section 5.4.2
Prime sample inlets and purge Sample Pump, on page 173.
When loading sample using an external air sensor, the sensor should be installed accord-
ing to Adapter for air sensor, on page 49.
