PerkinElmer to Develop Interface for Agilent Technologies Inc.’s EZChrom Elite™ Software to Control PerkinElmer Clarus® Gas Chromatographs
PerkinElmer, Inc. (NYSE: PKI) today announces the development of the interface software for Agilent’s EZChrom Elite™ chromatography data system (CDS) to control PerkinElmer’s Clarus® family of Gas Chromatographs (GCs). Once installed, the interface software will enable existing EZChrom Elite™ users to control PerkinElmer’s Clarus® GCs, including the 600, 500 and 400 models, on their existing networked installations. The software will be available for distribution on a worldwide basis as of July 2009.
This new software control will provide EZChrom Elite™ users the benefits of PerkinElmer’s Clarus® 600 GC, widely regarded as the fastest conventional GC, as well as offering the robustness and configuration flexibility of the Clarus® 500 and 400 GCs. Customers in petrochemical and pharmaceutical markets, as well as a variety of other markets, that use EZChrom Elite™ can now leverage the speed and performance provided by the Clarus® GC platform to improve their productivity.
This new development is in response to customer requests to control PerkinElmer’s Clarus® GC systems in an EZChrom Elite™ environment.
