A controller includes a temperature prediction unit. The temperature prediction unit predicts, on the assumption that a refrigerant is fed from a refrigerant feeder, an internal temperature of a column oven based on time interval information and decrement information in a memory. Thus, the temperature prediction unit can accurately predict the internal temperature of the column oven when the refrigerant is fed from the refrigerant feeder. If the refrigerant is fed from the refrigerant feeder when the predicted internal temperature of the column oven is suitable for the analysis operation, the internal temperature of the column oven can be brought closer to an appropriate temperature. As a result, the internal temperature of the column oven can be controlled with precision.

Refrigerant introducer and gas chromatograph

A gas chromatograph for preventing leakage of carrier gas and secondary accident such as explosion is provided. A flow rate restricting valve having valve mechanism which mechanically restricts flow rate of carrier gas is disposed at the upstream side of sample inlet portionof the carrier gas flow pathand apart from the flow rate control valvewhich controls the flow rate of the carrier gas, which is inlet into sample inlet portion and analytical column according to signal from control unit. The excessive flow rate that is larger than the predetermined resulted from the leakage of carrier gas is mechanically restricted to a pre-set flow rate by using the flow rate restricting valve. The leakage of carrier gas e.g., helium and the secondary accident due to leakage of carrier gas e.g., hydrogen, are prevented.
