1. Summary of Product Features
Designed with the Analyst in Mind
The Nexis GC-2030 features Analytical Intelligence and enables all users to monitor the instrument status and set parameters with ease.
Best-in-class Sensitivity and Reproducibility
Nexis GC-2030 provides the best-in-class analysis accuracy. This makes the Nexis GC-2030 the best choice to measure residual solvents in pharmaceuticals.
Exceptional Extensibility and Productivity
The most optimized system can be selected depending on the purpose of analysis and target components. Four detectors can be controlled simultaneously using LabSolutions.
Flexible Lineup for Various Analysis
Two analytical lines can be operated simultaneously for different applications.
Industry Leading Detector Sensitivity
All detectors of GC-2010 Pro realize high sensitivity in miniaturization design to meet the ever-increasing demands for trace level analysis.
Options Enhancing Scalability
Simultaneously install up to three injection units and up to three detectors to suit the needs of your analysis.
Superior Performance
Improved design and innovative technology for all of our injectors, detectors and flow controllers equal or surpass our GC-2010 the high-end technology leader.
Excellent User Interface
Large LCD, all digital gases control and auto-diagnostics inherited from the GC-2010 – “The Most advanced, easy-to-use interface”
Expandability to Support all Types of Analysis
Use any column types for any analysis. Packed or capillary columns give you the freedom to choose the best technique for your measurement. Fully integrated multiple valve systems are made simple for optimum performance for System GC custom GC products.
Eco-Friendly Model
A compact design and efficient insulating materials inside the oven minimize the heat capacity and heat loss, reducing electricity costs and realizing more environmentally friendly operation.
Compact, All-in-One Design
With a compact design, the GC-2025 minimizes space requirements while maintaining the necessary features for normal capillary analysis.
High Performance
The GC-2025 delivers superb performance for capillary analysis and provides high-quality analytical results as well as improved productivity.
