High-Sensitivity Quadrupole Mass Spectrometry for Routine and Trace-Level GC/MS Analysis

If your laboratory needs to overcome poor analyte recovery and active site degradation during volatile and semi-volatile screening, the Agilent 5975 MSD Inert Turbo Pump EI (G3172A) Detector provides a high-performance GC-MS detection platform. Engineered with a solid-inert Electron Ionization (EI) source, this mass spectrometer minimizes compound interaction with internal surfaces, delivering clean mass spectra and high response for reactive compounds. The integrated high-capacity turbomolecular vacuum pump maintains optimal high-vacuum performance under high carrier gas flow rates, accelerating pump-down cycles and ensuring long-term signal stability. Designed for seamless integration with Agilent 6890, 6850, 7890, and Intuvo 9000 Series gas chromatographs, this detector supports both full-scan spectral matching and Selected Ion Monitoring (SIM) for low-level quantitative targeting. Driven natively by MassHunter or ChemStation software, this dependable GC-MS workstation serves as an indispensable tool for environmental testing labs running VOC and SVOC methods, forensic toxicology laboratories, and pharmaceutical facilities performing residual solvent analysis and impurity profiling.

Agilent 5975 MSD Price and Cost of Ownership: Reliable Performance at Lower Cost

The cost of ownership for an Agilent G3172A 5975 Inert Turbo Pump EI Mass Selective Detector (MSD) includes both the initial acquisition investment and the ongoing operational expenses necessary to maintain reliable GC/MS analytical performance. A refurbished system typically ranges from $12,500 to $17,500, while a new equivalent configuration, such as the Agilent G7077CA 5977C Inert Plus MSD Turbo EI Bundle, generally costs between $48,000 and $58,000, depending on system configuration and application-specific requirements. Beyond the upfront purchase price, laboratories should account for long-term operating costs, including consumables such as filaments, ion-source components, vacuum pump oil, carrier gases, calibration standards, and routine preventive maintenance, to ensure consistent sensitivity, system uptime, and analytical accuracy. Additional expenses may include software support, servicing, and periodic turbo pump maintenance to sustain performance and regulatory compliance. For laboratories seeking dependable EI-based GC/MS capabilities while optimizing capital budgets, purchasing a certified refurbished Agilent G3172A 5975 Inert Turbo Pump EI MSD offers substantial value. Professionally refurbished systems can deliver reliable performance comparable to newer models at a significantly lower cost, enabling environmental, pharmaceutical, forensic, petrochemical, food safety, and industrial laboratories to reduce capital expenditure while maintaining high-quality analytical workflows and maximizing return on investment.

Agilent 5975 Inert Turbo Pump EI MSD for Agilent GC Platforms and Autosamplers

Pairing the Agilent G3172A 5975 Inert Turbo Pump EI Mass Selective Detector (MSD) with compatible Agilent gas chromatography platforms, including the 6890, 6850, 7890, and Intuvo 9000 GC systems, creates a highly versatile and reliable GC/MS solution for environmental, pharmaceutical, forensic, petrochemical, food safety, and industrial testing applications. The Electron Ionization (EI) capability provides highly reproducible mass spectral data and robust spectral library matching, enabling confident identification and quantification of volatile and semi-volatile organic compounds in complex sample matrices. When integrated with proven Agilent GC platforms, the system delivers excellent chromatographic separation, improved analytical sensitivity, and stable performance for demanding workflows such as contaminant screening, residual solvent analysis, hydrocarbon profiling, and quality control testing. Compatibility with autosamplers, including the Agilent 7683, 7693, and CTC PAL series further enhances laboratory efficiency through precise automated injections, increased sample throughput, reduced carryover risk, and improved reproducibility across large analytical batches. Supported by turbo pump technology for enhanced vacuum performance and faster system recovery, the Agilent G3172A 5975 Inert Turbo Pump EI MSD provides laboratories with a scalable, high-performance GC/MS platform optimized for productivity, analytical confidence, and workflow flexibility.
