Agilent Technologies Inc. (NYSE:A) today introduced completely
redesigned versions of its industry-leading sulfur and nitrogen
chemiluminescence detectors.
Oil refineries, petrochemical producers, and food and beverage companies
all depend on precise sulfur and nitrogen testing to meet tightening
global regulations on pollution and product quality.
The new Agilent 8355 sulfur chemiluminescence detector and 8255 nitrogen
chemiluminescence detector are the only solutions to provide complete
integration of the gas chromatograph, detector and software for fast,
reliable low-level analyses.
“With sulfur and nitrogen testing gaining importance for both upstream
and downstream activities, we took a close look at our gold-standard
products and reimagined them, making them significantly better,” said
Shanya Kane, Agilent vice president and general manager of the Gas Phase
Separations Divisions. “In today’s labs, where time is critical and
accurate results are vital, our new sulfur and nitrogen detectors will
deliver.”
Highly sensitive and highly specific, the redesigned detectors are also
easier to maintain, thanks to a simplified burner design with 50 percent
fewer components. The most common service routine, which used to take
one hour, now takes only 10 minutes.
The new detectors are fully integrated with the Agilent 7890B gas
chromatograph. They are also available as standalone units that can be
connected to any gas chromatograph.
The Agilent 8355 and 8255 represent a major advance in sulfur and
nitrogen chemiluminescence detection, making the technology more
reliable and easier to use.
