Hi JF_Fortin ,
As andyg mentions, starting with Qual B.08.00 SP1 and Version 10.0 the handling of data files with only 2D detector data has been improved to automatically open non-MS chromatograms.
In previous versions the message you are seeing is…
We have a GC-MS instrument and it works well. Recently we installed a new column which connected to FID detector. Now we want to run a method with GC-FID/MS. However, we observed the peaks only in MS spectrum without FID spectrum. We need help with the…
ICP-MS MassHunter Version 4.1. I cannot Startup Standard Lens Tune!
The message appears "Failed to add Startup/Hardware tasks to Queue; Enter path for batch folder".
As usual (my Batchs)- everything works.
Hello,
Our Headspace sampler 7697A Leak test failed. Leak test failing at the stage 1 off the Restriction and Pressure Decay Test.
Going from there, the sample probe was replaced as well as the pressurization solenoid valve but without success.

Hello vtpolywood ,
What type of GC do you have, if I may? If it's an 8890 for example there are some Diagnostic tests built-in that you can run on the Cool On Column inlet. Have you recently changed gas tanks (whether carrier, FID fuel, air or makeup…
Our micro GC 990 is Natural Gas Analyzer B and B extended version with 3 channels (PoraPLOT U, 6-meter CP Sil 5 CB, CP-Molsieve 5A). We are having trouble with data processing. We have 2 calibration gases from Agilent (Natural Gas mixture and Universal…
In MSD Chemstation, you can specify which signal to use for quantification: TIC, Target Ion, or GC Signal (for GC detectors like FID, TCD, etc.) Go to the Calibrate menu and select Edit
Compounds. On the Compound Table Identification tab, look for the…
Hi,
I plan to attempt some SimDist analysis in accordance with D2887 on my agilent GC-FID. I was hoping that I could achieve this without additional software (i.e. just through manual manipulation of the data acquired by Chemstation), but apparently…
Hi everyone.
We have a 8890 Agilent GC with nickel catalyst and FID detector. We would like to use hydrogen as carrier gas, but we don’t know the right flow rates, because the manual is indicating flow rates only for using helium as carrier gas.
For…
