Agilent Intuvo 9000 GC System, S/SL, FID, G3950A (Refurbished)

The Agilent Intuvo 9000 GC System (G3950A) represents a new generation of gas chromatography designed to maximize laboratory productivity while simplifying everyday operation. Unlike conventional gas chromatographs, Intuvo employs patented Direct Heating technology that heats the analytical column directly, significantly reducing analysis cycle times and oven cooling periods. This configuration is equipped with a Split/Splitless (S/SL) inlet and a Flame Ionization Detector (FID), providing a versatile platform for routine GC analyses across pharmaceutical, environmental, petrochemical, industrial, and research laboratories.

Key Features

• Split/Splitless inlet for flexible injection modes
• Flame Ionization Detector for sensitive hydrocarbon quantification
• Direct heating oven with ramp rates up to 250 °C/min
• Fast cool-down from 450 °C to 50 °C in under 3 minutes
• Ferrule-free microfluidic connections (“click-and-run”)
• Guard Chips protecting columns and downstream components
• Integrated Capillary Flow Technology (CFT) with backflush capability
• Intelligent diagnostics monitoring >100 parameters in real time
• Compact footprint and reduced power consumption
• Large touchscreen interface with wireless connectivity
