This Agilent 5973 GCMS system is comprised of a 5973 MSD, a 6890 GC, and a Tekmar 3100 Purge & Trap Concentrator. Features and specifications for each component follow.
The Agilent 5973 MSD is a robust mass selective detector designed for use with the 6890 series GC. Widely used for identifying and quantifying volatile and semi-volatile compounds,the system is ideal for environmental analysis, forensic toxicology, food safety, and pharmaceutical quality control. Additionally, its high sensitivity also makes it ideal for chemical, petrochemical and general research applications.
5973 MSD Features:
- High Sensitivity
- Veratile Ionization (supports both EI and CI modes)
- Retention Time Locking (RTL)
5973 MSD Specifications:
- Mass range m/z: 1.6 – 850 amu
- Mass resolution: Unit mass adjustable by tune.
- Scan rate (electronic): up to 10000 amu/s, write-to-disk: 8000 amu/s
- Sample form: liquids
- Selective ion monitoring (SIM) / mass range: up to 50 groups in 30 masses/group
- Ionization energy: 0-315 μA
- Total flow: 2ml/min (standard turbo), 4 mL/min (performance turbo)
The Agilent 6890 GC enjoys long-time recognition as a laboratory workhorse, providing robust, superior performance across applications.
The Tekmar 3100 Purge and Trap Concentrator is an automated purge-and-trap sample concentrator. It conditions and transfers volatile organic analytes from liquid and soil matrices onto a sorbent trap, and subsequently desorbs them for analysis by gas chromatography.
This fully refurbished GC/MS system with purge and trap (P&T) is ideal for the characterization of organic compounds and detection of volatile organic compounds (VOC) in water, wastewater, soils, and sludges.
This Agilent 5973 MSD with 6890 GC and Tekmar 3100 comes fully refurbished from GenTech Scientific.
