Agilent Technologies 3000 Micro Gas Chromatograph offers up to four channels for fast on-site analysis of complex samples

15-Apr-2002

PALO ALTO, Calif., April 12, 2002 Agilent Technologies Inc. today unveiled the most versatile of its micro gas chromatograph (GC) family, enabling fast on-site analysis of virtually any type of complex gas. The Agilent 3000 Micro GC can run up to four channels simultaneously.

The system's modular design can be configured for a broad range of applications, including fuel cell, refinery gas, natural gas, high-purity industrial gas, oil and gas exploration, and petrochemical applications. Laboratory-quality analyses on site in even the most hostile environments make this rugged briefcase-size system ideal for pilot plants, process lines, test stations and field work. The system's modularity allows users to replace modules quickly if needed, with minimal downtime.

An intuitively simple-to-use software interface allows non-chromatographers to run samples and get results with ease. And because of its micro-machined components and capillary columns, the 3000 Micro GC provides analyses up to 10 times faster than conventional laboratory GCs. Immediate feedback at the sampling point supports quick, informed decision-making. Furthermore, the system's thermal conductivity detector (TCD) with extended dynamic range is 10 times more sensitive than traditional laboratory TCDs, allowing users to analyze samples with major and minor components in a single run. Such excellent performance answers growing demands for increased productivity and greater profitability -- whether in the field or in the laboratory.

Digital pneumatics control minimizes variations in operator skill level and improves consistency instrument-to-instrument and run-to-run. Local area network (LAN) connectivity provides remote system access and control. Customers have a choice of pre-configured or custom-configured models, shipped ready for installation and use. Agilent applications experts offer technical support on system configuration, installation and ongoing applications.
