Agilent Gas Clean Filter Kit for Carrier Gas CP17975

The Agilent Gas Clean Filter Kit for carrier gas is part of Agilent's Gas Clean Filter System and is installed in the carrier-gas line immediately before a GC or GC–MS to remove moisture, oxygen and hydrocarbons that can damage columns or reduce sensitivity. Manufacturer documentation and product guides describe its use with inert carrier gases and provide installation and purge procedures to ensure low background and reliable trace analysis.

Key Features:

• Intended for inert carrier gas (designed for carrier gas lines to GC/GC–MS).
• Typical outlet impurity levels specified for carrier-gas kits: Moisture < 0.1 ppm; Organics < 0.1 ppm; Oxygen < 50 ppb (manufacturer-stated performance for Gas Clean carrier-gas kits).
• Kits use replaceable Gas Clean purifier cartridges (carrier-purifier element example: CP17973) and pair with Agilent connecting units available for 1/8 in and 1/4 in fittings.

Advantages:

• Protects GC columns and detectors by removing moisture, oxygen and organics, reducing sensitivity loss and downtime as described in Agilent documentation.
• Enables reliable trace analysis and can allow use of lower-grade (4.6) helium while maintaining performance, offering potential cost savings.
• Visual indicating media and optional Gas Clean sensor provide quick confirmation of filter status so cartridges are replaced before capacity is exceeded.
• Modular connecting units and cartridge-based replacement support fast, leak-free maintenance to minimize instrument downtime.
