The hydrogen sensor continuously detects the hydrogen proportion of the GC oven air. LEDs signal an increasing hydrogen concentration. If this concentration exceeds the limits, optical and acoustic alarms and the switch to inert gas will eliminate any risk of explosion.
The Hydrogen Sensor can fully be integrated in Agilent 6890/7890 GCs (fig. on the left and right, LEDs in front panel). For all other GC models, the sensor is available as external device (fig. in the middle) |

Function
• | Sensor configuration: Sensor head / control unit with LEDs, optical and acoustic alarm / gas switching module | • | Hydrogen concentration exceeds lower limit ( 10 % of the lower explosion limit, LEL): first red LED lights up, audio warning | • | Hydrogen concentration exceeds upper limit ( 25 % of the LEL resp. 1 % by vol. H2) alarm signal sounds, automatic switching to inert gas |
