In one embodiment of the invention supercritical fluid chromatographic separation may be accomplished by apparatus which includes a column, an oven for maintaining the temperature of a sample in the oven, an injector for delivering a sample containing fluid to the column and a pump for delivering carrier fluid to the injector. A discharge outlet for receiving processed fluid from the column contains one or two restrictors and a nozzle for discharge of processed fluid. The pump also delivers fluid which is the carrier fluid not containing the sample to a position in the pressure control inlet so as to alter the linear velocity of the sample containing fluid through the column. A controller controls operation of the oven and pump. A valve and a transducer may be positioned in the line between the pump and the discharge outlet in order to permit adjustment of the pressure of the unprocessed carrier fluid being introduced into the discharge outlet by the controller. The method of this embodiment may employ equipment of this type to effect chromatographic separation at the desired flow rate.
