Configuration considerations
To achieve a standard factory configuration, it may be
necessary to move an already existing detector. For a
two-detector configuration, factory placement rules are as
follows:
•
A thermal conductivity detector (TCD), if present, is always
placed in the front location.
•
An FID, if present, is always placed in the back location.
