Gas Management
Agilent recommends using copper tubing for most applications, since it is easy to bend
and plumb and is less expensive than stainless steel. Use stainless steel tubing only for
crucial applications that require very high purity, or where building codes mandate its use.
Before any tubing is placed into service,
or if it becomes contaminated with use,
it is essential that it be properly cleaned.
Unclean or improperly cleaned tubing can
lead to contamination of the system with
disastrous results. Never use chlorinated
solvents to clean tubing or fittings.
Agilent provides clean, high quality
GC grade tubing for large systems as
an economical alternative.
