Agilent Unveils the 8850 Gas Chromatograph: A Leap Forward in Analytical Excellence




Imagine a world where your lab has all the analytical power you need but in half the space. Say hello to the new rockstar in town: the **Agilent 8850 Gas Chromatograph (GC) System. Agilent Technologies Inc., the big brain behind this marvel, has conjured up a single-channel GC that’s set to change the game. By blending the legacy of the 6850 GC with the intelligence of the 8890 GC, they’ve created a compact powerhouse poised to revolutionize diverse markets like energy, chemicals, food, and pharmaceuticals.

What’s even more impressive? This bad boy slashes energy consumption by up to 30%! So, not only are you getting top-tier performance, but you’re also doing Mother Earth a solid. Efficiency and sustainability wrapped in a sleek package – what’s not to love?


Modern labs face a tough balancing act. They need to crank out high-quality results while dealing with limited bench space and sustainability goals. It’s like juggling flaming torches while riding a unicycle. But fret not, because the 8850 GC is here to make your life a whole lot easier.

Lab managers, you’ll want to pay attention. This compact GC ensures you get the most out of every square foot of your facility. Maximize instrument uptime? Check. Optimize bench space? Double check. And let’s not forget about meeting those ever-pressing sustainability goals. The 8850 GC is designed with an unwavering focus on efficiency, making it an absolute must-have for any modern lab.



Mike Zhang, vice president and general manager of the Gas Phase Separations Division at Agilent, couldn’t be more excited about this launch. "We are excited to introduce the 8850 GC, a cutting-edge instrument that leverages the latest technological advancements," he said. And he’s not just hyping it up. This compact, rugged GC is packed with the intelligence of Agilent's smart GC portfolio.

The 8850 GC isn’t just about being small and mighty. It’s also about being smart. Integrated instrument intelligence means enhanced uptime and remote connectivity features for seamless maintenance and troubleshooting. Smaller heating and cool-down times mean faster lab throughput. Plus, using up to 30% less power than other GCs, it’s a win-win for both your bottom line and the planet.



Transitioning to a new instrument can be a pain. But with the 8850 GC, it’s smooth sailing. Jim Gearing, associate vice president of Marketing in the Gas Phase Separations Division at Agilent, summed it up perfectly: "The 8850 GC speaks directly to labs' goals, as a small, dedicated single-channel GC with the power of instrument intelligence and the high-end performance of the 8890 GC."

Ease of use is the name of the game here. The 8850 GC uses the same touchscreen interface and connectivity as the 8890 GC. Method migration and development efforts? Minimal. Familiar consumables and software mean you’re up and running in no time. It’s like switching from one high-performance car to another – no learning curve, just pure performance.



The Agilent 8850 GC is a stellar addition to Agilent's already impressive portfolio of GC instruments. Curious to know more?
