We need to use air generator for 8 GCs with FID Detector. Each FID uses 350 mL/min air. So for 8 FID, 2.8L air will be sufficient? Is it ok to go for an air generator that supply 3L of air/min or we need to go for a higher option? Kindly advise
When you run startup, does it use the Standard Tune or User Tune? In the new D rev of software (5.X) you can go to Startup/Startup Configuration and just above the Hardware settings table select Configure ignition sequence. For C rev (4.X) click the narrow…
Hi everyone
In my company recently we update the Openlab Ezchrom to CDS 2,5.
We have a GC 7820A and when we analyzed Residual dissolvents we have a trouble because between 3 to 5 minutes the detector (FID) get shutdown and this signal of shutdown…
What version of Windows do is it running? Go to the cell next to the logo (Type here to search) and enter winver and select the run app. At top it should say Windows 10, at this time only MassHunter 5.2 is Win11 compatible. 2 lines below Windows 10 will…
Thank you for the reply, I will have a go at it tomorrow. So essentially I just need to change one of my internal standard compounds to a normal compound, and use that as a single point calibration? It just seemed logical that every internal standard…
Hi All,
I have an Agilent 7700 ICP-MS running MassHunter 4.6. Interesting issue - the instrument tunes just fine but when I go to run a sample, the data acquisition never stops; it continues well past the time it should have taken including rinse program…
Thank you very much for your quick attention. I take advice to use Labadvisor, however, the host computer is a windows 7 system and the built-in net framework is NE3.5, but LabAdvisor downloaded from Agilent site needs Net Framework version 4.7.2 , which…
I have Open Lab CDS Chemstation Edition for GC systems and 7890A with FID. I get in vial concentration of an analyte in a sample from calibration curve as ppm. Need to generate an Intelligent report, I get concentration in sample (with Sample weight,…
Good Afternoon,
I'm developing a processing method using Mass Hunter Quant. 10.2 for ethanol (quantitate) and other related volatiles (ID only). The instrument setup is a single column that splits to two detectors FID and MS (FID for quant purposes…
I am using Agilent 8890. I am trying to set the standard for my GC-FID, I am injecting 5mL of methane gas standard with a gas-tight syringe through a switching valve which is set up to the left of my GC. However, I am getting different peaks and areas…
