  • Patent number: 11275064
    Abstract: A gas chromatograph with a positioning system for the inlet liner and the column includes a column and the positioning system for the inlet liner and the column. The column is configured for gas chromatography. Wherein, the positioning system for the inlet liner and the column is configured to position the inlet liner and the column with respect to one another. The positioning system for the inlet liner and the column is configured to repeatably and optimally position the inlet liner and the column with respect to one another. The positioning system for the inlet liner and the column positions the inlet liner in a perpendicular orientation to the column.

  • Patent number: 10962510
    Abstract: A gas chromatograph with column recognition technology system for the column includes a column and the column recognition technology system for the column. The column is configured for gas chromatography. The column includes column parameters associated with the column. The column recognition technology system may be configured to auto-recognize the column in the gas chromatograph device. Wherein, the column recognition technology system may be configured to auto-recognize the column parameters associated with the auto-recognized column.

  • Patent number: 10955393
    Abstract: A gas chromatograph with a removable column holder includes a column and a removable column holder. The column is configured for gas chromatography. The removable column holder houses the column. The removable column holder is configured to be removable from the gas chromatograph device with the column. The removable column holder houses only the column. The removable column holder is configured to allow removing and interchanging of the column within the removable column holder. The removable column holder is configured to protect the column within the column holder from mechanical damage and contamination due to handling. The removable column holder is configured to allow a user to install the column into the gas chromatograph without the need for tools. The removable column holder is also configured to reduce the possibility of error when installing the column.

  • Patent number: 10935524
    Abstract: A gas chromatograph device includes an inductively heated column configured for gas chromatography. The gas chromatograph includes a column configured for gas chromatography and an inductive heating source. The inductive heating source is configured to directly or indirectly heat the column. The inductive heating source includes an inductive heating element or coil. The inductive heating element or coil is configured to induce a current directly or indirectly in the column. Wherein, the column in the gas chromatograph is inductively heated via the inductive heating source.
