Gas Chromatography Benches

The four core steps of gas chromatography are: (1) sample injection into the heated injector port, (2) vaporization and transport of the sample through the column by a carrier gas, (3) separation of components based on their interaction with the stationary phase as they travel through the column, and (4) detection and recording of separated compounds as they exit the column, generating a chromatogram.

Workplace Modular Systems' Gas Chromatography Instrument Benches are rated to 1,000 lbs of evenly distributed load, accommodating GC instruments, vacuum pumps, ancillary equipment, and all associated accessories within a single, integrated workstation platform.

Yes. The benches are compatible with all major GC and GC-MS instrument manufacturers, including Thermo Fisher Scientific, Agilent Technologies, Shimadzu, PerkinElmer, Bruker, Sciex, Waters, and Beckman Coulter. Custom configurations are available to match specific instrument footprints and accessory layouts.

Work surfaces are available in epoxy resin, phenolic resin, plastic laminate, steel, and wood. Epoxy and phenolic resin surfaces meet SEFA 8 chemical resistance standards, making them suitable for environments where solvent exposure and chemical spills are a routine consideration in gas chromatography workflows.

Yes. Workplace Modular Systems offers 9 standard configuration sizes plus fully custom options. Design Specialists provide complimentary engineered drawings tailored to your lab's instrument footprint, utility requirements, and available floor space. Custom orders are typically manufactured and delivered within 30–45 calendar days.

Gas Chromatography Instrument Benches are compliant with SEFA 8 chemical resistance standards for laboratory furniture, ISO/IEC 17025 requirements for analytical laboratory environments, and are BSL-1 Ready. They are also designed to support OSHA 1910 laboratory safety requirements, including proper solvent storage and vacuum pump containment.
