Agilent 8860 gas chromatograph analysis and detection instrument

Intelligent functions for diagnosing and maintaining instruments can help laboratory managers better avoid unexpected shutdowns and reduce misoperations.

The color touch screen provides access to gas chromatography settings, status information, configurations, and signal diagrams to confirm that the analysis is running as expected.

The browser user interface allows easy access to gas chromatography information from a PC or tablet. Edit methods and sequences, and access intelligent functions. Check the status of the instrument and run the diagnostic program from a location within reach of the laboratory network.

Blank running evaluation can identify and notify users of issues such as baseline offset, unexpected peaks, and baseline elevation. The detection and evaluation can automatically evaluate the detection and verification samples, and provide a summary report in the diagnostic section.

Compared with the previous generation Agilent gas chromatography design, the microfluidic EPC architecture has improved reliability and service life, and can resist gas pollutants such as particles, water vapor, and oil.

8860 uses electronic gas path control (EPC) on all injection ports and detection to ensure better retention time and peak area, obtain analysis results, and reduce repetitive work.

The Electronic Gas Path Regulation (EPR) option enables easy manual operation through high-precision digital display of pressure/flow rate. Actual pressure and flow data can be recorded using Agilent OpenLab CDS software.

8860 EPC and EPR have environmental temperature and pressure compensation, which can provide more stable retention time and detection baseline.

Using economical electronic gas path control, such as helium saving modules and hydrogen sensors, can reduce helium usage and improve experiments

The retention time locking (RTL) function provided by Agilent OpenLab CDS software can match the chromatographic retention time between Agilent gas chromatography systems using the same method and chromatographic column.

The optional DA ExPress data analysis of 8860 gas chromatography is particularly suitable for users who do not require data processing or compliance software functionality. This software simplifies data analysis and enables easy integration, reporting, and calibration.

The FID, which can adjust the detection range, has a wide dynamic response range, improving quantitative accuracy while reducing the pre-treatment requirements for compounds.

Monofilament TCD does not require manual adjustment of the potentiometer and can provide a stable baseline without drift.
