Abstract

See full text

The invention relates to a switching valve for liquid chromatography having a stator in which multiple ports are formed. Each port is formed by in each case one duct which is connected at one end to in each case one connection port and which, at the other end, has a predetermined port opening cross section at a stator face surface of the stator. The switching valve includes a rotor which has a rotor face surface which interacts with the stator face surface and in which are formed at least one or more grooves. Depending on the rotational position of the rotor with respect to the stator, in at least one predetermined switching position, the switching valve connects respective predetermined port opening cross sections in a pressure-tight manner. The switching valve further includes a drive device for driving the rotor in rotation, and a device for detecting the rotational position of the rotor, which device generates a signal corresponding to the absolute or relative position of the rotor.
