Capillary Flow Technology by Agilent Technologies

Agilent Capillary Flow Technology (CFT) devices are low thermal mass, oven mountable, and inert. They use flexible metal ferrules that allow GC and GC/MS operators to make reliable, leak-free capillary connections. As part of the Inert Flow Path, they can be used confidently and reliably for the most demanding applications. CFT devices increase the flexibility and uptime of Agilent GC systems. For example, the backflush CFT device can reduce sample preparation by preventing heavy contaminants from reaching the analytical column and detector.

Features

• Backflush significantly reduces injection-to-injection times and provides better data quality
• Purged Ultimate Unions offer deactivated leak-free connections to reduce downtime and increase lab productivity
• Flow Splitters allow data to be collected on up to three detectors in one injection with easy deactivated connections
• Deans Switch facilitates heart-cutting by switching peaks to a second column of different stationary phase for additional selectivity that provides better resolution of trace compounds in complex matrices
• GC x GC Flow Modulation provides comprehensive multidimensional chromatography without the need for cryogenic cooling, providing a visualization of sample components for class determination
