Gas chromatographs — selection and configuration
A gas chromatograph separates mixture components in a carrier gas stream. The technique supports analysis of volatile, thermally stable compounds in research, production and quality control laboratories. Instrument configuration depends on the sample, analytical method and required detector.
Select equipment and request a quotation
State your method, workload and required options to prepare a comparable quotation.
Selection criteria
Compare oven temperature range, inlet type, available detectors, flow control and sample introduction options. Columns, autosamplers, gas supply and software are separate elements of the system configuration. GC with conventional detectors and GC-MS with a mass spectrometer are different system configurations.

Compare three models
| Model | Key configuration |
|---|---|
| Agilent 8890 | Up to 2 inlets and 4 detectors; EPC; touchscreen and browser control |
| Shimadzu Nexis GC-2030 | 13.7 L oven; up to 3 inlets and 4 detectors; 7-inch display |
| Thermo Scientific TRACE 1610 | 230 V version; up to 2 inlets and 2 detectors; iConnect modules |
All three platforms have a maximum oven temperature of 450 °C. Platform capacity does not mean every inlet or detector is included. Choose for the method, sample, gases, columns and required automation. Prices are quoted against an agreed specification.
Manufacturer information and documents
Check the version, supply region and document revision. A series page may describe options that are not included in the specific configuration.
Configuration, pricing and procurement
For a quotation, specify the required configuration, number of instruments, installation city and services needed. Agree options, consumables, commissioning and staff familiarisation separately. Documentation, delivery times and warranty terms are specified in the quotation and contract. See the model page for its current price or quotation request option.
Questions before selection and procurement
Is the pictured autosampler included in the base supply?
The quotation determines inclusion. The GC-2030 photograph shows an optional AOC-30, while TRACE 1610 is shown with optional AI/AS 1610 units. These listings do not include a mass spectrometer.
Where can I check the configuration and price?
Agilent 8890 · Shimadzu Nexis GC-2030 · Thermo Scientific TRACE 1610.
What should a quotation request specify?
Specify the task, configuration, accessories, software, training and service requirements. A fixed price must match the agreed scope of supply.
