- loop overfill mode
- reproducibility less than 1 % upon injection of 10 μl variable volume.
- memory effect less than 0.1 % depending on the selected washing procedure
- large graphical display and keyboard for easy control
- injection volume programmable in 1 μl increments
- temperature controlled sample compartment (5 - 60° C)
- programmable washing procedure with selectable volumes
- programmable port for purging
- programmable sample sequence
