GC1290 Gas Chromatography (LCD Touch Screen)

Gas Chromatography is a kind of instrument for qualitative and quantitative analysis of multicomponent complex mixture by using chromatographic separation technology and detection technology. Generally, it can be used to analyze the thermal stable organic compounds in soil, such as volatile organic compounds, organic chlorine, organic phosphorus, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, phthalates, etc.

GC1290 vs. Mainstream Gas Chromatographs

For routine GC analysis, the right instrument is not always the one with the highest oven temperature or fastest heating rate. Stable gas control, detector coverage and sufficient temperature programming are often more important for daily QC work.

Which GC Is Right for Your Lab?

Why GC1290 Makes Sense for Routine GC

Choose GC1290 if:
Routine QC, environmental, food, pharmaceutical or petrochemical methods are mainly within 400°C and ≤40°C/min, and you need flexible FID / TCD / FPD / NPD detection with EPC control.

Consider a premium GC platform if:
Your method specifically requires 450°C operation, >40°C/min fast temperature programming, advanced multidimensional GC, extensive automated diagnostics or highly specialized detector configurations.
