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…
Turning off the systems on Friday night that need to be ready to go on Monday morning is not recommended. It can take quite some time for a GC/MS to come back up to operational after being shut down. Even cooling the temperatures all down and then heating…
Hi Everyone
This is my first post here in this community. And I really hope to get some ideas to fix my problem, since i'm getting slowly desperate!
So here's my problem: We have some really bad contamination/peaks on all our polar Systems:
I…
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…
Hi,
After a power cut, the batch file I had open on my desktop seems to have become damaged...
On opening the batch, it fails to open... small dialogue pops up >> "failed to open quick scan file. Failed to read binary quick scan file."
Has anyone…
Hi!
I still need help yes, please!
- On the machines (GC system and Injector) it just says HP6890 (see photos attached)
- The PC we employ is an old Windows XP running one, that was used to run the GC-FID before we want to control it with the serial…
Hi, I would suggest to test the same without column installed to the FID. If problem looks similar check for leaks at the FID gas lines and clean the FID. If not clean the inlet and replace the split vent line and filter. Maybe try a new column.

Hi Community
I have an Issue on one of our GC-FIDs 6890N. I have large Peak Tailing, especially on the back of my chromatogramm:
What i already did:
- New Column
- New Septa/liner
- New Gold Plate
- Cleaned Inlet and Detector
- Re…
Any special procedures to prepare for cross-country shipment a 7890B with SS, PP inlets, heated valve oven, and TCD-FID? Also a 7697A with 100-vial tray?
*The system and method are given at the bottom of this post*
I am working with an Agilent 8860 operating a DB-624 UI (30m x 0.25mm x 1.4um) column with nitrogen carrier gas and split inlet (20:1). The system was shut down for approximately 1 year, and…
