Agilent Gas Clean Filter Carrier Gas CP17973
The Agilent Gas Clean carrier gas purifier (CP17973) is a cartridge-style purifier designed for GC and GC–MS carrier gas lines. Installed immediately upstream of the instrument inlet, it removes oxygen, moisture and hydrocarbons from inert carrier gases to protect columns, improve trace analysis, and shorten system stabilization times. It is supplied as the carrier-gas purifier in Agilent Gas Clean kits and features a visual indicator to show filter consumption.
Key Features:
- Part number: CP17973 (Agilent Gas Clean carrier gas purifier)
- Function: Removes oxygen, moisture and hydrocarbons from carrier gas for GC/GC–MS
- Indicator: Sensitive color-change indicating material that signals replacement (replace when ~75% changed)
- Compatibility: Supplied in Agilent Gas Clean carrier-gas kits and compatible with 1/8 in and 1/4 in Gas Clean connecting units
- Operational claim: Enables use of 99.996% (4.6) helium instead of higher grades, with manufacturer-estimated cost savings (~30%)
Advantages:
- Protects GC columns and detectors by removing contaminants that cause sensitivity loss and column damage
- Shortens instrument stabilization and tune times for increased productivity in GC/MS workflows
- Visual indicator and clear replacement guidance reduce the risk of unnoticed filter saturation and instrument downtime
- Fast, leak-free replacement (system design) and compatibility with common connecting units simplify maintenance and installation
