Whether you are locating natural gas deposits, evaluating biogas, monitoring well efficiency, or measuring samples in your lab, you need fast, reliable results. Agilent 990 Micro GC systems provide the vital answers you need in the compact footprint you want. It combines innovative, industry-leading features with the quality and speed that are critical to your gas analysis.
Features
- Analysis of gas samples only.
- Up to 4 channels of separation and detection.
- Micro-machined TCD detection.
- Small footprint in dimensions as well as environmental. Use only 10% of power and carrier gas compared to conventional lab GC.
- He, H2, N2, Ar carrier gas options.
- Wide range of micro GC column phases.
- Flexibility. Lab, out-of-lab, process (in-line/ at-line).
- Exchange channels between lab version and mobile version.
- Inert sample path. Demanding sulfur (H2S) analysis down to low level ppm.
- Wide range of accessories, sample handling as well as reporting and result exporting tools.
Instruments that work as hard as you do: Micromachined components and onboard data handling functions give you continuous unattended operation, easy troubleshooting, and portability. Self-aware features and diagnostics identify and alert you to possible errors before they affect your results.
Designed for flexibility: With options like optimized sample conditioning, up to two sample inlets, up to two carrier gases, and a user interface/touchscreen, every 990 Micro GC fits the way you work. Modular construction lets you quickly reconfigure the system using plug-and-play GC channels. In addition, the ability to make onsite channel repairs saves time and cost.
Small yet powerful: The goals that motivate Agilent innovation are also your goals: maximum reliability and trouble-free operation under all conditions. And this spirit of innovation is reflected in our 990 Micro GC systems. With their compact, laboratory-quality gas analysis platform, you can generate more data in less time for fast, confident business decisions
Innovative technologies separate gases in seconds—in less space and with less power and carrier gas consumption than benchtop GC systems. Quick, easy startup lets you achieve results in minutes, even if you change measurement locations frequently.
Micromachined injectors
- Higher dependability: silicon micromachined injector has no moving parts to wear or break.
- More functionality: software-selectable injection times cover a range of application requirements.
- Less wear and tear: available backflush capability protect the analytical column.
- Improved performance: injector can be heated to 110°C, eliminating discrimination of higher hydrocarbons.
Micromachined thermal conductivity detector (μTCD)
-
Better data quality: 200 nL internal volume eliminates peak broadening.
-
Lower detection limits: - 0.5 ppm for WCOT capillary columns
- 2 ppm for PLOT columns
- 10 ppm for micropacked columns
Stay in control with intelligent GC
Gain the freedom to work the way you want—where you want—while achieving quality data, every time.
-
Inert sample flow path: We treat key parts with UltiMetal for superior inertness to deliver the best possible detection limits and long-term instrument stability.
-
Intuitive user interface: Control your instrument through your mobile device and receive pass/fail results on your phone or tablet. Optional touch screen display lets you easily view instrument status (Included with the 990 Mobile Micro GC system. Optional with the 990 PRO and 990 Micro GC systems).
-
Better support:
- Plug-and-play simplicity makes it possible to replace channels in as little as 10 minutes.
- Reduce your cost of ownership with onsite service repair of the column, injector, and detector.
- New retention time stability (RTS) design lets anyone replace the filter with minimal training.
-
Improved diagnostics:
- Instrument intelligence keeps tabs on system health and alerts you to leaks.
- Obtain critical information on instrument status, maintenance, and more.
Benefits of wireless connection
- Easily connect your 990 Micro GC to a phone or tablet.
- Eliminate the need to carry cables or computers to the analyzer.
- Quickly reference instrument status and analysis results.
- Enable start/stop runs.
