HP - 5890 Series II
Manufactured by HP
Hewlett Packard 5890 Series II Gas Chromatograph
The HP 5890 Series II provides flexibility in choices among inlets, columns, and detectors through the use of liners and adapters, allowing any standard column to be used without sacrificing performance. Additional flexibility is gained through positions of inlets and detectors relative to each other and through the large internal volume of the oven. There are five inlet options and six detector, as well as a wide variety of flow and pressure control components.
