 Developed as part of a continuing commitment to providing customers with the most advanced GC solutions, the System GC program provides our customers with the best applicated and fully configured GC products available anywhere.
Configured and tested in Shimadzu’s System Integration Technology Lab, the system is shipped with proof of performance, QA/QC and a field test standard. We fully recognize the need for after-sales support and our state-of-the-art training facility houses
6 labs and classrooms to accommodate up to 6 classes simultaneously.
Building Blocks:
Gas Chromatographs
The modular GC-2014 Series is the workhorse of the System GC program. Utilizing the high-end technology of the GC-2010 to cover a wide range of applications from capillary to packed column analysis, the GC-2014 provides state-of-the-art performance and features:
- Ability to hold 4 detectors, 7 heated zones
- 12 channels of Advanced Pressure Control
- 16 time programmable relays available
- Large oven can accommodate many columns
Valves
Valco is the industry standard when it comes to GC valves, and we use their valves in all of our applicated GC systems. From the valve and rotor materials to the actuators and heated valve enclosure, you can be assured of exceptional performance and reliability.
Inert Treatment for Analytical Flow Path
For applications involving sulfur it is recommended that every stainless steel surface that comes into contact with the sample be rendered inert. This is generally accomplished by treating the stainless steel with a special coating. To address this issue, Shimadzu uses the Sulfinert® surface treatment process, which eliminates interaction between organo-sulfur compounds and steel.
Systems:

Transformer Gas Analysis
Shimadzu has been building GC systems for ASTM-3612 for 25+ years. We pioneered the ASTM “Method B” Oil Stripper system which eliminates the use of Mercury or vacuum extraction. In the last few years we have expanded into building Method C systems as well.
- TOGAS by ASTM D3612 Method A
- TOGAS by ASTM-D3612 Method B
- TOGAS by ASTM-D3612 Method C
Greenhouse Gas Analysis
Shimadzu has been building GC-based systems to analyze for Greenhouse gases for 20+ years. In this time we have become the market leader and the instrument of choice for university and government researchers around the US and the world. Our analyzers are ideally suited for addressing the new U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Final Mandatory Reporting of Greenhouse Gases Rule, which requires large emitters of heat-trapping emissions to begin collecting greenhouse gas data under a new reporting system.
In addition to monitoring/quantifying CO2, Methane and Nitrous Oxide, the systems can be expanded to include the analysis of SF6, perflorochemicals and hydrofluorocarbons.
Greenhouse and Atmospheric Gas Analyzer
- Greenhouse Gas Analyzer #2
Specialty Analyzers
- Permanent Gas Analyzer
- Chlorine Gas Impurities Analyzer
Biofuels
Shimadzu builds a variety of analyzers to meet the needs of Biofuel production plants and research facilities. Here, we present systems for QC analysis of Bioethanol and Biodiesel by ASTM standards.
- BioEthanol System
- BioDiesel by ASTM-D6584
Biomass Feedstock Research
The emergence of the Biomass research field has created a need for analytical tools to analyze reaction and fermentation products. Shimadzu has risen to the task by offering a custom GC program to meet these needs.
