The TRACE 1610 GC is designed to enhance the workflow experience for both new and expert users through its advanced multi-functional touch screen with instrument health monitoring and how-to videos. The TRACE 1600 GC is designed for minimum interaction with the instrument, limiting the local operations to the essentials and enabling full instrument control through the chromatography data system.
Thermo Scientific™ TRACE™ 1610 Series Gas Chromatograph: TRACE 1600 vs TRACE 1610.
Maximized instrument productive time
- Keep your GC system up and running even when deeper cleaning is required, thanks to the offline maintenance capabilities of the iConnect injector and detector modules
- Optimize the use of GC instruments in the lab and avoid having idle systems with interchangeable iConnect injector and detector modules
- Avoid unplanned downtime through alerts on consumables usage
- Reduce run time and system contamination through integrated backflush capabilities
- Extend unattended operations through a full portfolio of sampling automation products
Thermo Scientific™ TRACE™ 1610 Series Gas Chromatograph: Interchangeable injector and detector modules allow for flexible configuration.
Monitor key aspects of your GC systems
With Thermo Scientific™ SmartStatus™ instrument tracking within Chromeleon CDS, quickly see whether instruments are ready to run samples, if maintenance is required or if consumables should be replaced. The fully customizable software enables you to make data-driven decisions on when to perform maintenance and avoid unnecessary downtime.
Simplified operations for quick adoption
- Facilitate operations through how-to videos directly available on the local touch-screen interface
