The 500 Series Gas Chromatograph is an exciting and unique new concept in Gas chromatography. The instrument can perform conventional gas chromatography with an air blown oven, but also the ability to perform Ultra-Fast Chromatography with directly heated columns. When operating in conventional GC mode the 500 series uses its compact air blown oven and patented low energy heat recovery heating system to delivery industry standard performance. In ultra-fast mode metal capillary columns are directly resistively heated. This allows several benefits, greatly increased ramp rates and upper temperature limits, decreased cool down times and dramatically reduced energy consumption.
