The Agilent Intuvo 9000 GC System (G3950A), configured with a Split/Splitless (S/SL) inlet, Flame Ionization Detector (FID), Auxiliary Electronic Pneumatic Control (AUX EPC), and GC/MS interface, is a flexible gas chromatography platform designed for laboratories performing both routine quantitative analyses and mass spectrometric compound identification. Its modular architecture allows the combination of highly sensitive FID detection with the analytical capabilities of Agilent GC/MS systems, while patented Direct Heating technology and advanced electronic pneumatic control improve analytical throughput, reproducibility, and ease of maintenance.
