Q: Technology

Helium Conservation Module A helium conservation module for 8890, 8860, or 7890 GC systems can drastically reduce your consumption of helium carrier gas and the associated cost, especially when used with Gas Saver. It can be programmed to switch to a different gas (typically nitrogen) when your GC is idle. The module is compatible with any inlet, backflush, and dual simultaneous injections. GC Intelligence Built-in GC Intelligence enables you to work smarter with autonomous monitoring, self-guided maintenance procedures, remote connectivity, and other time-saving features that can improve laboratory efficiency. DA Express for 8860 For simple, routine GC applications that do not require extensive data processing capabilities or compliance support, Agilent DA Express for an Agilent 8860 GC provides simplified data analysis, and makes it easy to integrate signal data, build calibration curves, and create result reports. Retention Time Locking (RTL) Retention time locking (RTL) enables the retention times on one Agilent GC or GC/MSD system to be matched exactly on another like system using the same nominal column.

Question 1

Features

Accepted Answer

Advanced instrument intelligence functionality for GC diagnostics and maintenance helps lab managers better avoid unplanned downtime, minimizing costly operational surprises
Color touch screen display provides access to GC setpoint and status information, configuration, and signal plot to confirm that analyses are progressing as intended
Browser user interface provides convenient access from a PC or tablet to edit methods and sequences, access advanced intelligence functions, see instrument status, and run diagnostics from any place within reach of your lab network—even from home
Blank run evaluation identifies and notifies the user for problems such as baseline excursions, unexpected peaks, and elevated baselines
Detector evaluation automatically evaluates GC detector checkout samples, providing summary reports in the diagnostic section
Unique 6th-generation microchannel-based EPC architecture provides a significant improvement in reliability and longevity against gas contaminants such as particulates, water, and oils over previous generation Agilent GC designs, as well as other GC vendors’ designs
Full 8860 electronic pneumatics control (EPC)—available on all inlets and detectors—ensures better repeatability of retention times and peak areas, more consistent results, and less rework
Electronic Pneumatics Regulation (EPR) option provides simple manual operation with high-precision digital display of pressure and flow (actual pressure and flow data can be recorded with Agilent OpenLab CDS software) and offers significant advantages over manual pneumatics systems
8860 EPC and EPR ambient temperature and pressure compensation results in more stable retention times and detector baselines
Optional helium conservation module reduces the amount of helium used and the associated costs
Optional Hydrogen Sensor Module Series 2 detects hydrogen leaks early and shuts off gas flows, continuously monitors status using built-in intelligent diagnostics, and requires calibration only every six months
Retention time locking (RTL), available with most Agilent OpenLab CDS software, provides the ability to precisely match chromatographic retention times in any GC system to those in another Agilent GC system with the same method and column
Optional DA Express Data Analysis for 8860 GC simplifies data analysis, integration, reporting, and calibration making it particularly well suited for users who do not require significant data processing or compliant software functionality
Autoranging flame ionization detector (FID) provides a wide dynamic response range, enhances accuracy, and minimizes preparation requirements for samples that contain very high or very low compound concentrations
Single-filament thermal conductivity detector (TCD) provides a stable baseline without drift and does not require a separate reference gas or manual potentiometer adjustment
Independently audited for environmental impact throughout the product lifecycle, received My Green Lab’s ACT (Accountability, Consistency, Transparency) label
