Description
Agilent 7890A
The Agilent 7890A is a state-of-the- art gas chromatograph that provides superior performance for all appli- cations. Key to its performance is the use of advanced electronic pneu- matic control (EPC) modules and high performance GC oven tempera- ture control. Each EPC unit is opti- mized for its intended use with a specific inlet and detector option.
GC oven temperature control of the 7890A oven allows for fast and pre- cise temperature ramping. Overall thermal performance provides opti- mal chromatography including peak symmetry, retention time repeata- bility, and retention index accuracy.
The combination of precise pneu- matic and temperature control leads to extremely precise retention time reproducibility, which is the basis for all chromatographic measure- ment.
Agilent 7890A Capabilities
- Supports simultaneously: - Two inlets
- Three detectors (third detector as TCD)
- Four detector signals
- State-of-the-art detector electron- ics and the full-range digital data path enable peaks to be quanti- fied over the entire concentra- tion range of the detector (107 for the FID) in a single run.
- Full EPC is available for all inlets and detectors. Control range and resolution are optimized for the specific inlet or detector module.
- Up to six EPC modules can be installed, providing control of up to 16 channels of EPC.
- Pressure setpoint and contol pre- cision to 0.001 psi provides more retention time locking precision for low-pressure applications.
- EPC with capillary columns pro- vides four column flow control modes: constant pressure, ramped pressure (3 ramps), constant flow, or ramped flow (3 ramps). Column average linear velocity is calculated.
- Atmospheric pressure and tem- perature compensation is stan- dard, so results do not change, even when the laboratory environment does.
- The LAN interface allows real-time monitoring of the GC when it is connected with Lab Moni- tor & Diagnostic Software, even when also connected to a data system.
- One-button access to mainte- nance and service modes from the keyboard
- Preprogrammed leak tests
- Automatic Liquid Sampling is fully integrated into mainframe control.
- Set point and automation control can be done from the local key- board or via a networked data system.
- Clock-time programming can be initiated from the front panel to initiate events (on/off, method start, etc.) at a future date and time.
- A run time deviation log is cre- ated for each analysis to ensure that all method parameters were achieved and maintained.
- A full array of traditional gas sampling and column switching valves are available 550 timed events
- Display of all GC and ALS set points at the GC or data system.
- Context-sensitive online help
