In Position A, sample fills the two loops in series. In Position B, the sample is simultaneously injected into two separate flow systems. A single autosampler used with this flowpath can automate two analytical procedures for the same sample.
In an important non-chromatographic application, the roles of carrier and sample are reversed, permitting two different quantities of two different materials to be dispensed together, as in automatic dilution.
