Agilent G1323B Game Boy (Refurbished)

The Agilent G1323B Handheld Control Module, commonly referred to as the "Game Boy" controller, is a compact, portable device designed to provide full local control over Agilent 1100 and 1200 Series high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) systems. This intuitive and easy-to-use control module offers real-time monitoring and operation of pumps, autosamplers, detectors, degassers, and thermostatted column compartments, ensuring seamless integration into laboratory workflows.

Equipped with a clear LCD screen and an ergonomic keypad, the G1323B allows users to configure methods, manage system settings, execute calibrations, and monitor ongoing analyses without the need for a dedicated PC. It features context-sensitive menus, logbook functionalities, and an early maintenance feedback (EMF) system that aids in troubleshooting and maintenance scheduling. The PC card slot enables storage and transfer of methods and sequences between different LC systems, enhancing flexibility and reproducibility in analytical processes.
