The GC power consumption and requirements depend on the type of oven that you ordered and the 
country the unit is shipping to.  

The following table Lists the AC Power requirements for various 7890 GC configurations:

Notes 

1.

 

The number and type of electrical outlets depends on the size and complexity of your system. For 
example, a GC system with a computer, monitor, printer, and HUB/Switch requires 5 outlets.  

2.

 

The outlet for the GC must be dedicated to the GC with a dedicated ground. 

3.

 

The GC will have a label next to the power cord connector that lists the line voltage requirements. 
 

     

 

Special Notes: 

1.

 

Option 003 is for any Country with standard 120/240 VAC to accommodate 208 VAC Power

2.

 

Power line conditioners that contribute any power line distortion should not be used with the 
Agilent 7890 GC. 

3.

 

Refer to the "Power Consumption" section of the "Agilent GC, GC/MS, and ALS Site Preparation 
Guide" for more detail. 

4.

 

It is important to measure the line voltage at the receptacle for the GC to insure compatibility 
with the power configuration of the GC.
