Agilent 8890 Gas Chromatograph

Chromatographic performance*
• Retention time repeatability <0.008 % or <0.0008 minutes
• Area repeatability <0.5 % RSD
The Agilent 8890 GC is a state-of-the-art gas chromatograph that provides superior
performance for all applications.
Key to its performance is the use of advanced electronic pneumatic control (EPC)
modules and high-performance GC oven temperature control, which lead to
extremely precise retention time reproducibility, the basis for all chromatographic
measurement.
The 8890 7-inch capacitive touchscreen interface provides real-time access to
instrument status, configuration, and flowpath information. A signal plot confirms
that analyses are running as intended. Additional tabs provide quick access to key
functions such as editing method parameters, diagnostics, maintenance, logs, and
help screens.
The Browser Interface is the most extensive interface to the 8890 GC’s intelligence
and mobile access features. Optimized for a 10-inch tablet, the Browser Interface
can be used on a tablet, PC, or even a phone. Now you can view setup information,
troubleshoot problems, check for leaks (autonomous hands-free), backflush
columns, pause and start sample runs, and manage method development. GC
performance can be monitored by automatically evaluating blanks using advanced
onboard analytical techniques. A browser interface optimized for mobile viewing on
either iOS or Android phones provides status information including remaining run
time and a static plot of the last 20 minutes of detector data.
The 8890 has expanded configuration capabilities, where up to two inlets and four
detectors can be installed and operated simultaneously. Six GC column Smart Key
ports are provided.
Agilent proprietary Capillary Flow Technology provides a new dimension in
chromatography with reliable, leak‑free, in-oven capillary connections that stand up
to repeated GC oven cycling over time. The 8890 GC has enhanced hardware to
extend Capillary Flow capabilities, and enhanced data system software to simplify
setup and operation of backflush techniques. Programmable eco-friendly Sleep
Mode reduces power and gas consumption during periods of inactivity, while Wake
Mode readies the system for high-throughput operation.
