Agilent 3000 Micro GC

Fast, simple and portable. The 3000 micro GC packs big advantages.
With the Agilent 3000 Micro GC there's no need to wait for lab results. Our new system provides fast analysis at your sampling point. You have immediate access to the data, calculated to your specifications, or you can forward data off-line for processing. Agilent's Cerity Networked Data System (NDS) for Chemical QA/QC or EZChrom Elite software enables non-chromatographers to generate data on-demand or continuously via automation. The 3000 system is totally portable. Interfaced with a laptop, the micro GC can be carried to any site, anywhere.

True Portability
 With the portable 3000 micro GC, the user is truly independent. Options for a small, on-board carrier gas cylinder and batteries untether your analytical capabilities. You can choose both the compact carrier gas cylinder and batteries, or the on-board cylinder only if the analyst has easy access to local power.

Some important features of the portable 3000 micro GC include the following:

• All injectors and columns available for the 3000 are available for the portable 3000.
• The batteries and mini-carrier gas cylinder are rechargeable. A cylinder recharging kit comes with the instrument.
• Analyses can be run using power from the on-board batteries, an AC power source, or the power cable adapter for an automobile.
• The batteries can be recharged from either an AC power source or using a power cable adapter for an automobile.
• A battery charge monitor is included in the Cerity software.
• Any heated zone can be turned "off" to save power, extend battery time to recharge, and enable lower-temperature analysis.
• The sampling pump can be turned "off" or "on" as part of the method.

Analyze simple or complex gas streams with a single injection.
With the Agilent 3000 Micro GC, most analyses are completed in less than 160 seconds with a detector that is 10 times more sensitive than traditional thermal conductivity detectors. Multiple channels make analyzing complex samples quick and easy. Each channel or module is a self-contained GC comprised of a micro-machined injector and micro thermal conductivity detector and a high-resolution capillary column. As a result, you can simultaneously analyze your sample on up to four different columns using four different sets of operating conditions – expanding your separation capabilities without compromising speed. Digitally controlled pneumatics coupled with extended dynamic detector range enable you to analyze gas streams containing major and minor components in one run with a high degree of precision and accuracy.
