Agilent, G3440-60665, GC small valve oven actuator

[]

The Agilent GC Small Valve Oven Actuator is a replacement mechanical actuation component for the small valve-oven assembly of compatible Agilent gas chromatography equipment. Valve actuation enables scheduled changes in gas-flow routing during methods that use switching, sampling, or backflushing functions. The actuator has a distinct role from the heated valve oven, chromatographic column, pneumatic gas supply, and electronic control module. Replacing a damaged or unresponsive actuator may help restore correct movement of the associated valve mechanism when the actual fault has been isolated to this component. Service work should include verification of the fitted valve and oven configuration, careful protection of nearby fittings, and a leak check before chromatographic operation resumes. After replacement, confirm that the valve moves at the programmed times and that chromatograms show the intended flow sequence. This product is one valve-oven actuator; its specific drive mechanism and compatibility across all GC generations should not be assumed.
