Gas chromatography is essential for analysis in a variety of industries – from food and beverage, to pharmaceutical, to petroleum. (Combine a GC with a mass spectrometer and the list is even longer.) Agilent’s 6890 GC has earned a reputation for reliability and longevity. Used 6890s, refurbished by our expert service engineers, have long been one of our best selling instruments. So it’s no surprise that preventive maintenance and service and repair for these workhorses are popular topics.

One caution: It should go without saying, that before attempting any repairs yourself, always make certain that doing so will not invalidate any warranty terms.
