The Agilent CTC PAL RTC 120 Automated Sample Preparation System (G7370-66669) is a highly automated sample preparation and introduction platform designed for gas chromatography and GC/MS workflows. Built on the CTC PAL RTC 120 platform, it features Robotic Tool Change (RTC) technology that automatically exchanges sampling tools, enabling multiple injection techniques within a single analytical sequence. High sample capacity, intelligent consumable tracking, and extensive sample preparation capabilities make it an ideal solution for both routine and advanced analytical laboratories.
