Micro GC System

Agilent 990 Micro GC systems are designed for gas analysis. They provide quick startup and response time even if changing measurement locations frequently. Various configuration options offer up to four channels of separation and detection. The GC can be used in the lab, on-line, or in the field. They use only 10% of the power and carrier gas compared to a conventional lab GC.
