Bringing laboratory quality analysis online!
With Eclipse, Wasson-ECE is leading the revolution in process gas chromatography. Eclipse analyzers are fully customizable to meet the needs of the most challenging processes.
Data density – the amount of data generated by a single analyzer processing multiple sample streams – is one of Eclipse PGCs biggest assets!
The objective in the design of this instrument was to deliver laboratory-caliber capillary column chromatography in an online PGC. To meet this goal, the Wasson-ECE engineering teams combined high-performance convection ovens with electronic pressure and flow controls to overcome the limitations of traditional PGCs.
Two fully-programmable micro-convection ovens (MCOs) enable the precise temperature controls required for capillary column chromatography. There are also two isothermal ovens, each with a separate temperature assignment. Eclipse column ovens can accommodate up to 8 columns (capillary or packed).
MCO
Eclipse MCO capillary column ovens deliver temperatures up to 225°C
Cool Oven
Eclipse Cool Oven capillary columns use Peltier cooling to reach -20°C
Isothermal Oven
Isothermal ovens (up to 150°C) are also utilized as needed in several configurations and locations for maximum flexibility.
Low sensitivity analysis (ppm to ppb) is achieved by combining the precision of the MCOs with electronic pressure programming and flow controls.
Eclipse EPCs tightly regulate the pressures and flows in our PGC.

Xylenes provide an excellent example of the power of VUV to differentiate between very similar coeluting compounds. Xylene isomers co-elute chromatographically (A) but exhibit spectroscopically distinct features when scanned between 120-240nm (B). VUV deconvolution algorithms use these features to correctly match the isomers to the reference spectra in the compound library.

Eclipse delivers outstanding control of temperatures, pressures and backpressure control resulting in excellent retention time reproducibility. Additionally, split inlet performance and mass flow control deliver highly reproducible peak areas. These data clearly demonstrate the exceptional analytical capabilities of Eclipse PGCs.
Flexible detector configurations allow Eclipse to scale across a wide range of analyses. From complex analyses requiring low detection limits and high accuracy identification to simple budget-conscious analyses. Eclipse can include a combination of two flame ionization detectors (FID) or pulsed discharge helium ionization detectors (PDHID) and isothermal ovens can contain thermal conductivity detectors (TCD).
Neutrino expands the Eclipse platform with the ability to reach lower detection limits with unparalleled identification accuracy. Combining the separation of gas chromatography with the identification power an Agilent 5977B mass spectrometer, Neutrino allows users to detect and quantify components that would be impossible with other detectors.
