iConnect™ Split/Splitless with Backflush (SSL-BKF) Injector Module for TRACE 1300 Series GC

Extend the life of your analytical column and maximize laboratory throughput by eliminating high boiling compounds. The Thermo Scientific iConnect SSL-BKF injector module enables you to easily add pre-column backflush to your split or splitless injection.

Thanks to the self-adjusting pressure during backflushing, the integrated pneumatic control eliminates complexity and the cost of an additional auxiliary gas module, and facilitates method setup.

• Suitable for all capillary columns (50 μm to 530 μm inner diameter)
• Supports concurrent solvent recondensation (CSR) for large volume injections (up to 50 μL)
• Supports P&T/TD/HS by special adapter
• Compatible with the Merlin Microseal™ septum
• Maximum temperature: 400°C

SSL injector with integrated concurrent backflush

• Reverse the flow inside the injector
• Eliminate heavy or “undesired” compounds concurrently during the analysis run
• Increase throughput

SSL injector advantages

• Perform reproducible, accurate, and robust sample injection
• Reduce bleed and extend septa lifetime
• Implement existing and validated methods quickly and easily
• Use many standard consumables such as liners, septa, and ferrules already in your lab
• Gain easy and immediate access to the septum and liner for simple and quick maintenance without tools or removing gas lines thanks to TRACE 1300 Series iConnect modules
• Extract and restore the injector body quickly for cleaning when needed, such as after difficult, sticky samples

Reduce downtime, simplify maintenance, and enhance GC performance

iConnect injectors and detectors redefine GC and GC-MS flexibility and usability. In two minutes, without training or tools, you can change these modules to:

• Reconfigure your system for a specific workflow or method
• Perform maintenance and dramatically reduce maintenance downtime
• Switch injectors and detectors between TRACE GC systems
