May 15, 2014 Confidentiality Label

2

Built in vaport volume calculator for solvent/liner selection. Never overload your inlet with sample

Method translator software to easily move methods to fast GC columns or switch from Helium to Hydrogen

Match Compare Software to show sample match based on pattern recognition

Pulsing injections allowed (needed for vicious samples) Large injection volumes (is there a limit to 5-500ul syringe) Headspace Control – is it manual? All features available from

software Capillary flow technology – is it easy and straightforward to

use? Can your system do emerging 2-D GC technology? Control the

Deans Switch? Back-flush mode to flush waste off of the column allowing faster

runs and longer column life – is it easy and straightforward? New autosampler tray features (i.e. Deriviatization) All instrument parameters are reportable with standard tools

Agilent OpenLAB CDS ChemStation and GC Control – Does your system have the following (cont.)?

Gas Saver mode features Barcode scanning with auto-input 3D interactive parts finder for entire GC system Sleep – Wake functionality to lower cost of ownership Integrated Early Maintenance feedback module Advanced ALS handling of errors Consistent driver look and feel for all Agilent GC and GC / MS systems Up to 10 instrument connection to computer/AIC (lower cost of ownership) Retention Time locking features Column compensation software Column Database and reporting (Column usage) Single Vendor support for hardware and software (no finger pointing) Control Gas Sampling valves as needed

Agilent Early Maintenance Feedback

• Set-up the Counters within the Agilent Data Systems

• Based on the configuration of the GC

• User-defined early maintenance feedback counters

• Notification of the Warning and Service Due

Agilent Early Maintenance Feedback

• Some EMF counters have default limits; however the maintenance required will be depended on the type of sample analyzed.

Another way to set them up: • When you perform

maintenance look at the settings of the counters.

• Set the warning limits to the amount.

• Check the counters next time when performing maintenance and adjust the limits.

Display of Instrument Actuals

Instrument actuals are displayed next to set-points in the data system.

Resource Conservation: Sleep/Wake Mode

• Schedule the time of the Wake and Sleep Methods either as “custom”, “7 days a week” or “Sat/Sun”

• Manually put the instrument to sleep by clicking on “Sleep” on the “Instrument” menu

• Instrument will still go to Sleep or Wake mode even if the data system is not connected for any reason.
