Small Size Bigger Impact
Agilent 8850 GC
The next evolutionary step for our trusted small footprint GC
GC analysts have long trusted the Agilent 6850 GC for its reliable performance and compact design. The Agilent 8850 GC builds on that foundation, introducing new features that make lab life easier—inside and out.
As the smallest high-performance benchtop GC available, the 8850 takes up just half the bench space of traditional systems. It combines a compact footprint with built-in intelligence, helping users—regardless of experience—diagnose issues, perform maintenance, and reduce downtime.
With MS compatibility and excellent sensitivity, the 8850 is well suited for applications in chemical, energy, food, environmental, forensic, and pharmaceutical labs. Familiar software and consumables ensure a smooth transition from the 6850, requiring minimal training or method redevelopment.

Work smarter, not larger
The 8850 GC is equipped to make a big impact on productivity. How? By increasing uptime, reducing sample turnaround time, and advancing your lab’s ability to deliver reliable answers.
- Fast analysis. A small, precisely designed air-bath oven enables industry-leading, fast temperature ramps (up to 300 °C/min) and short cool-down times.
- Energy efficiency. Using 45% less power than other GCs, the 8850 helps your lab reduce energy costs and meet sustainability goals.
- Redundancy. With a footprint about half that of traditional instruments, you can fit two instruments, and run two methods simultaneously, in the same valuable bench space.
- High performance. MS compatibility significantly boosts its ability to identify and quantify complex samples, providing the selectivity and sensitivity that your application requires.
Easy to use, easy to own
Using up to 45% less power than other GCs, the 8850 helps your lab reduce energy costs and meet sustainability goals.
