Discover how Chromperfect connects chromatography with industrial process systems using automated stream control, Modbus data exchange, analog and digital outputs, and OPC integration.

Excerpt: How to keep a component visible in a Chromperfect calibration file or chromatogram plot without treating it as an active calibrated analyte.

A clear explanation of GC/MS support in Chromperfect, including why Chromperfect can support applicable GC acquisition but does not support mass spectrometers or MS data acquisition.

Choosing a chromatography data system for GC involves more than basic acquisition. This article explains which CDS capabilities matter most for GC labs, including instrument compatibility, driver frameworks, data longevity, regulatory considerations, and long-term system stability.

Laboratories using Agilent OpenLab or ChemStation for gas chromatography often reassess their CDS as costs, software lifecycles, and system complexity increase. This article outlines practical GC-only alternatives, explains the differences between vendor and independent CDS platforms, and clarifies when replacing a vendor system makes sense—and when it does not—so labs can make informed, long-term decisions.
