8800 Series GC
The 8890 Gas Chromatograph (GC) System includes a flexible configuration addressing specific analysis demands. It uses a sixth-generation EPC for 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 touch screen or remotely through the browser interface. The GC can support two inlets and four detectors.
