Agilent G1379-68706 Connection Tube – Optimised Degassing through Series Sonnection
The G1379-68706 is a component designed to meet a specific need: to increase the level of degassing in four-channel LC modules by allowing two degassing chambers to be connected in series. This product consists of a short preformed tube, suitable for the fluidic interfaces of Agilent degassers, particularly those in the 1260 Infinity range.
In medical and pharmaceutical laboratories, certain solvents require enhanced degassing to ensure flow stability, prevent bubbles and ensure reliable results — particularly in high-sensitivity applications. By connecting two channels in series using the G1379-68706 tube, the solvent passes successively through two degassing membranes, increasing its contact time and significantly improving the removal of dissolved gases.
This connection tube is used when the performance of a standard degasser is no longer sufficient to meet analytical requirements. It is compatible with low flow rates, LC-MS analyses, low-wavelength UV detection, and methods involving samples sensitive to dissolved oxygen.
Self-contained and ready to use, the G1379-68706 can be easily integrated into existing configurations without the need for complex hardware modifications. It is a practical, targeted and economical solution for optimising degasser performance.
Thanks to its specific design, the G1379-68706 offers a reliable and durable solution for demanding laboratories without the need for software modifications or complex intervention. No special tools are required to install this connection tube: its short and precise format allows direct integration into the degasser's existing fluid ports, while ensuring a perfect seal.
It thus extends the service life of the module, pushes its performance limits and achieves a more consistent degassing level, particularly for volatile solvents or those sensitive to pressure variations.
