The AELAB GC1290 Gas Chromatograph is designed for monitoring and controlling analytical workflows through an integrated electronic pneumatic control system and advanced data acquisition platform. Its column oven provides superior thermal performance with 20 programmable ramps, enabling stable temperature regulation for precise chromatographic separation. The system supports rapid heat-up, fast cool-down, and automated back-door opening for efficient laboratory use.
The GC1290 incorporates a flexible sample introduction module that allows two sample injectors to operate independently. It offers high-sensitivity detectors, independent analog signal output, and M6 software compatible with GLP/FDA-21 CFR Part 11 electronic records and signatures. The microcomputer-based temperature control system ensures ±0.02°C accuracy, high reliability, and strong anti-interference capability.
The AELAB GC1290 features a robust column oven engineered for stable multistage heating from ambient temperature +7°C to 420°C. Its design integrates EPC-controlled carrier gas channels, purification and desiccation components, and a precision sample injector system. The oven provides rapid cooling performance — from 350°C to 100°C within 3 minutes — optimizing throughput for laboratories performing frequent method changes or multi-run sequences.
The GC1290 performs chromatographic separation through a controlled carrier gas flow and temperature-programmed column environment. Injected samples pass through packed or capillary columns where compounds separate according to their volatility and interaction with the stationary phase. Detectors including FID, TCD, FPD, NPD, and ECD quantify analytes based on ionization, thermal conductivity, photometric emission, nitrogen-phosphorus affinity, or electron capture mechanisms. Real-time acquisition software monitors peak formation, baseline stability, drift, and detector signal outputs.
The AELAB GC1290 supports PC workstation connectivity for full chromatographic control, data logging, multiramp programming, and long-term archiving. EPC parameters, temperature profiles, and detector settings are accessible through the 7-inch touch display. GLP-compliant data export and real-time acquisition integration enable traceable laboratory management.
