This system includes:
- Agilent 7890B Gas Chromatograph
- Flame ionization detector (FID)
- Electron capture detector (ECD)
- Agilent GC Injector 80 Pal Autosampler
The Agilent 7890B GC is a state-of-the-art gas chromatograph that provides superior performance for all applications. Key to its performance is the use of advanced electronic pneumatic control (EPC) modules and high performance GC oven temperature control. the temperature control of the 7890B oven allows for fast and precise temperature ramping. Overall thermal performance provides optimal chromatography including peak symmetry, retention time repeatability, and retention index accuracy. The combination of precise pneumatic and temperature control leads to extremely precise retention time reproducibility, which is the basis for all chromatographic measurement.
Agilent’s proprietary Capillary Flow Technology provides a new dimension in chromatography with reliable, leak-free, in-oven capillary connections that stand up to repeated GC oven cycling over time. The 7890B GC has enhanced firmware to extend Capillary Flow capabilities and enhanced data system software to simplify set-up and operation of backflush. Programmable Sleep Mode reduces power and gas consumption during periods of inactivity, while Wake Mode readies the system for high-throughput operation.
Other tools and calculators such as Method Translator, Vapor Volume Calculator, Pressure Flow Calculator, and Solvent Vent Calculator make it easier to analyze complex matrices and unknowns, and provide gains in productivity and data integrity for routine analyses via 2-dimensional heart cutting, detector splitting, and column backflushing. These tools are integrated within the Agilent Data Systems and calculated values are automatically transferred to the method editor.
