Used SHIMADZU GC-17A #9230632 for sale

SHIMADZU GC-17A is an advanced gas chromatograph spectrometer designed for trace analysis and high performance. It features an innovative user-friendly design and allows for convenient operation from sample injection to chromatogram output. GC-17A has a robust construction that is highly reliable and easy to maintain, making it durable, and a cost-effective choice for both novice and expert users. Its compact design ensures it can fit into virtually any laboratory setup. SHIMADZU GC-17A utilizes gas chromatography (GC) to ionize and separate mixtures of gases, liquids, and solids. It is in particular well-suited for complex mixtures containing specific amounts of compounds. The gas chromatographic separation process is based on the solvent elution principle. This entails that a sample is passed through a column at low temperatures. Upon entering the chromatograph, different compounds present in the sample interact differently with the column and therefore separate as individual peaks when monitored using a detector. GC-17A includes a built-in sample injector that can accommodate up to 315 injectors. It allows for direct injection, thermal desorption or backflush sampling. The sample injection is automatically controlled and conducted manually from the console or by the computer. Additionally, the sample injector can be equipped with a split/splitless injector, a high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) injector and a deuterated injector for mass spectrometry (MS) applications. SHIMADZU GC-17A also comes with an array of detectors including the Refractive Index (RI), Flame Ionization Detector (FID), Mass Selective Detector (MSD), and Electron Capture Detector (ECD). The detector can be selected manually or activated via manual external control. The detector output is directly displayed in the computer display for convenient monitoring and analysis. In addition, GC-17A also includes an integrated computer control system that can be programmed for data evaluation and automatic injection, as well data collection and plotting functions. The software also supports data import from a wide variety of file formats. SHIMADZU GC-17A makes gas chromatography analysis easy and accessible. Its advanced user-friendly design ensures accurate results quickly and efficiently.
