Eltra – Hydrogen Analyzer – H-500
Product Advantages
- Hydrogen determination with heat extraction technique for determination of residual hydrogen
- High-capacity thermal conductivity cell
- Easy calibration with standards or gas dosing
Application Examples
Alloys, copper, steel
Function Principle
Operating the H-500 is simple and safe. After weighing the sample on the interfaced electronic, the weight is transferred to the connected PC. It is also possible to enter the weight manually via the H-500 software.
The sample is placed into the cold zone of the horizontally positioned furnace.After starting the analysis, the furnace is rotated upwards for the sample to fall into the hot zone. By adding nitrogen as carrier gas hydrogen diffuses out and is carried into a sensitive thermal conductivity cell.
The typical analysis time is about 3 to 15 minutes. Detector signals and instrument parameters are displayed during analysis. Evaluation of the signals and display of the results are done automatically; the data can be transferred to a laboratory information management system (LIMS). The H-500 requires minimum maintenance. The particle filters and chemicals which need to be maintained are easily accessible.
