Pal CTC /gerstel

[marek2]

Hello,
Does anyone know if this CTC Combi Pal can work with GC? Or its some version of LC Pal. Generally I found that combi pal is dedicated for GC but why there is an LC valve installed?

Second question, can Gerstel sampler be controlled via Cycle Composer?

thanks

That valve is probably for gas sampling. Best to contact the seller, then you can use any answers if a dispute arises.

Yes, as the name implies "Combi"-PALs can be used for either GC or HPLC. That blue valve box is the standard injection port for HPLC. The loop is the sample loop. I've used these a lot. Warning: they're robust, but not particularly precise. Didn't matter for me since they were used with samples with internal standards. And I have a lab full of Combi-PALs doing GC injections.

No idea about the Gerstel/Cycle Composer question.
