Brevis™ GC-2050
Gas Chromatograph
Shimadzu GC Brevis: Compact, Powerful, and Cost-Efficient
The Shimadzu GC Brevis, derived from the Latin words for "compact", features a space-saving design with a width of only 350mm. Despite its compact size, it is built on nearly 70 years of Shimadzu's gas chromatography expertise, and the system supports flexible configurations. Easily transfer your existing methods and consumables to the Brevis without configuration constraints in petrochemicals, food, environment, pharmaceuticals industries and more.
Maximize Productivity
Brevis can double productivity by simultaneously analyzing samples on two analytical lines, the oven can accommodate two 100-meter industry standard columns for dual line analysis. With ease of use in mind, the GC-2050 was designed without a touch screen display and only three physical buttons: start, stop, and maintenance. Users can quickly execute runs and perform maintenance without entering the software. The remote display app allows advance users to connect to up to four GC instruments with a tablet for troubleshooting, diagnostics and instrument control.
New And Improved
In January 2025, the Brevis GC-2050 was fully updated to include all major types of inlet, detectors, pre-treatment devices, and mass spectrometer *1.
The TCD thermal conductivity detector has been completely redesigned, and the new GI-30 automatic gas injector is now available for the GX market.
Cost-Efficient Design
-
The Brevis GC-2050 is designed for energy efficiency, reducing power consumption by 30% during normal operation, and the newly integrated ECO Idling function further cuts power usage by approximately 61% and gas consumption by 92%*2 compared to previous models. The power saving can be converted into a CO2 reduction equivalent to the annual CO2 absorption of 86 cedar trees per unit*3.
*1: Inlet: Split/Splitless Inlet (SPL), Direct Injection Inlet (WBI), On-Column Inlet (OCI), Programmable Temperature Inlet (PTV), Packed Column Inlet (SINJ), Split Inlet for Gas (SPI) Detector: FID, TCD, BID, FPD, ECD, FTD/NPD MS Detector: QP-2050 Pre-treatment devices: HS-20NX Headspace sampler, TD-30 Thermal Desorption Sampler, PY-3030D Pyrolyzer, AOC-6000Plus Multi-functional autosampler, HS-10 Headspace sampler
*2: The Eco effectiveness will vary depending on the environment and analytical conditions.
*3: A cedar tree 36-40 years old is estimated to absorb about 8.8 kg of carbon.
