Clean Pilot Function

During typical GC startup and batch analyses, in order to dispose of impurities remaining within the column, the operator has to implement conditioning by manually raising the oven temperature. Using the Clean Pilot function, conditioning is performed automatically, leading to more stable analytical results while easing the burden of lab work.

LabSolutions Direct Accommodates Remote Work

LabSolutions Direct is a remote access tool used to control or monitor GC systems via a simple user interface on a commercially available smartphone or tablet. Consequently, analyses can be performed while monitoring the status of instruments from locations away from the laboratory.

Best-in-class* Sensitivity and Reproducibility

Nexis GC-2030 Gas Chromatography System provides the best-in-class analysis accuracy. Shimadzu's new AOC-30 auto-injector automates the analysis, reduces an operator's workload, and enables continuous analysis with a high degree of accuracy that cannot be achieved by manual operation. In addition, an advanced flow controller (AFC) included in the CPU supports carrier gas constant linear velocity control, constant flowrate control, constant pressure control, and various other control modes and achieves exceptionally high reproducibility for ultra-high-speed and ultra-high-precision control modes.

Simultaneously Control Up to Three Injection Units and Four Detectors

Barrier Discharge Ionization Detector (BID)

The barrier discharge ionization detector (BID-2030) is a universal detector that offers high-sensitivity analysis by using a low-frequency dielectric barrier discharge plasma for ionization. The BID generates helium (He) plasma by applying a high voltage to a quartz glass tube. The light energy from the He plasma then ionizes the target components and the ions are collected and output as peaks using a collection electrode. A wide variety of compounds other than He and neon (Ne) are detected with high sensitivity.











 

Exceptional Versatility and Productivity

The most optimized system can be selected depending on the purpose of analysis and target components. Four detectors can be controlled simultaneously using LabSolutions.*
In addition, both capillary and packed columns can be attached, so multiple analysis methods can be run with a single GC unit, saving on laboratory space.
* The number of detectors installed depends on the type of detector.

 

Switching Carrier Gases via a Gas Selector

Changing the type of carrier gas involves a great deal of work, including the replacement of the piping and gas filters. With the gas selector (optional), the carrier gas can be switched via the software, so different analyses can be performed while easily switching the carrier gas.
