We have an HP 6890 (G1530A) and the inlet can no longer get to the desired 240C, it lingers around 230C tops. Does anyone have a recommendation on how to fix it? I would really appreciate it!
Hi Anatoly,
Logically, this is a service call to check onsite and to get support from local agilent.
But if you want to do by yourself then check heater of inlet block.
May be it's malfunctioning or going to damage.
If you have two same inlet in GC then by swapping, you can confirm it...
The 6890 is obsolete from a sell as new perspective, and it has passed its guaranteed support stage, however it is still on "best effort" support which means Agilent can repair it while we still have the parts. Agilent still has 6890 parts.
A service call could be placed with Agilent.
The original part seems to have been obsoleted twice. The new part number is here: https://www.agilent.com/store/en_US/Prod-G1530-67950/G1530-67950 Now I have a dilemma, to buy a new part or refurbished from Full Spectrum...
