The Gas Chromatograph
The Saturn GC/MS employs the high performance Varian Model 3800 or 3900
Gas Chromatograph. The gas chromatograph comes with a 1079 or 1177
Universal Capillary Injector which provides five modes of injection - isothermal
split and splitless, temperature-ramped splitless, on-column and large volume.
For further details about the GC, please see the Varian 3800 Gas
Chromatograph Getting Started Manual (03-914647-00) and the 3800 GC
Operator's Manual (03-914648-00).
