Review Date: 19 Feb 2024 | Agilent Technologies

Sophisticated, User Friendly Hardware and software, Best in the Market.

 

Average Rating 5.0

Application Area:

Food, Water, Air & Gas and Water Samples Testing and Analysis

The GCs of Agilent Technologies are very sophisticated instruments. As a user of a range of GCs (7820A, 7890B, 8860, 8890) with detectors like FID, ECD, TCD, NPD, and MS, we are able to accomplish testing and analysis from ppb to % level with ease.

Review Date: 11 Dec 2023 | Agilent Technologies

Very sensitive and reproducible results

 

Average Rating 4.3

Application Area:

Pesticides and environmental contaminants

Relatively easy to use and integrate to regular workflow

Review Date: 18 Apr 2023 | Agilent Technologies

Great instrument and reliable results. This instrument is a major asset to our lab

 

Average Rating 4.7

Application Area:

Speciated TPH GCXGC

Our Agilent 8890 GCXGC with two columns has dramatically reduced sample prep and runs samples in half the time compared to our old system with a single column. It is very reliable, robust and user friendly. It has also more than doubled our throughput and capacity.

Review Date: 17 Mar 2023 | Agilent Technologies

Excellent equipment

 

Average Rating 4.3

Application Area:

analysis of residual solvents in pharmaceuticals

Using the equipment is very easy and has a wide range of applications.

Review Date: 11 Feb 2023 | Agilent Technologies

A state-of-the-art GC that delivers quality results and lasting value to your lab.

 

Average Rating 4.3

Application Area:

Flavor analysis

The Agilent 8890 is a robust, reliable, and user-oriented GC system, ideally suited for routine and experimental analysis. The touchscreen and software interface permits practical and flexible control of a variety of modes of operation, from a wide range of settings for inlet and column conditions, to detector parameters and data acquisition modes. Reliable and reproducible results are readily obtained, and the overall stability of the system results in reduced maintenance, and thus minimal off-line time. The Agilent MassHunter Software, included with all Agilent GC systems, enables fast, easy, customizable and flexible data analysis and interpretation, with advanced functionality such as dedicated peak deconvolution, unknown compound identification, and quantitative calibration (which includes automated quantitation using internal standard standards). The 8890 can be coupled to the 5977B quadrupole mass spectrometer, as well as a variety of other detectors (FID, FPD, NPD, TCD and ECD). Additional system modifications, such as the as 7650 Automatic Liquid Sampler, the 7697A Headspace Sampler, and the Multimode Inlet (with cryogenic functionality) equip the analyst with the ability to deal with different sample phases (liquids or solids) of different properties (e.g.: highly volatile or labile species). In terms of service and care, Agilent is attentive and timely in its response, and maintain good value for your investment.

The 8890 Gas Chromatograph (GC) System delivers fast and accurate results with flexible configuration capabilities to address specific analysis demands. When accurate results are critical and instrument uptime is a must, this intelligent, high-performance GC consistently exceeds expectations. Built-in intelligence and sixth-generation EPC enable autonomous diagnostics that check system health and alert you to potential issues and how to solve them. Step-by-step instructions for common maintenance procedures are presented on the touchscreen or remotely through the browser interface.

Features

  • The browser interface provides remote connectivity enabling you to monitor your smart GC system, check system logs, and perform diagnostics tests, from inside or outside the laboratory
  • The full-function touch screen gives a visual report of the system configuration letting you update the active method, perform maintenance routines, and check instrument status
  • Built-in intelligence autonomously monitors the health of the system, alerts the user of potential issues before they affect chromatographic performance, and offers helpful step-by-step guides to resolve issues
  • Unique sixth-generation microchannel-based EPC architecture provides a significant improvement in reliability and longevity against gas contaminants such as particulates, water, and oils, extending system uptime and the life of the instrument consumables
  • Capillary Flow Technology (CFT) modules, which are oven mountable and very low thermal mass, provide unique gas flow connections for multidimension gas chromatography (GC x GC/Deans Switch), comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography (2D-GC) with flow modulation, and backflush at the beginning, middle, or end of an analytical column
  • Single-filament TCD does not require a separate reference gas or manual potentiometer adjustment, yet provides a stable baseline with a minimal amount of signal drift commonly seen with valve switching
  • Autoranging FID provides the ability to detect and quantitate from percent levels to parts per billion (ppb) in a single injection
  • Compatible with all GC/MS platforms
  • Sulfur or nitrogen chemiluminescence detector provides low ppb detection, equimolar response, and quantitation for sulfur or nitrogen contaminants without quenching from matrix
  • Cost-saving advanced electronic pneumatic controllers such as Helium Conservation Module, Hydrogen Sensors, and Alternate Carrier Gas Solutions, dramatically reduce the amount of helium used offering flexibility, cost savings, and higher levels of safety
  • Optional Smart Keys, included with GC columns, provide information such as column usage with default parameters for configuration that helps automate method setup
