NEW PREMIUM LINE ELECTROCHEMICAL CELLS FOR HYDROGEN DETECTION

The Hydrogen economy is upon us. And NET is ready for it. We are launching new sensors and technologies to cover hydrogen detection from ppm levels all the way up to 100% volume. We already presented the revolutionary MAK Thermal Conductivity sensor. We are now introducing two new Premium Line Electrochemical cells for hydrogen detection at low levels (0-1000ppm) and in flammable range (0-40.000ppm, or 0-4%vol).

Hydrogen is highly energetic and extremely environment friendly: it can be created from water using renewable sources such as wind and solar, and its combustion only releases water vapor into the atmosphere. Several technical challenges will undoubtedly have to be overcome to guarantee a large-scale use, such as storage, distribution and efficient engine technology.

Even when those challenges are met and surpassed, hydrogen will still remain one of the most explosive and oxygen-reacting gases known to man, combusting at even low concentrations, and safety will remain a concern. Hydrogen is colorless, odorless and tasteless therefore, the availability of reliable and selective detection technologies will become vital for a safe transition into a true hydrogen economy.

The NET PREMIUM LINE is a range of electrochemical cells designed to exceed all the performance requirements of EN 45544-2 – including upper and lower limit of measurement, deviation of the measured values in clean air and in standard test gas, deviation of the measured values at all temperatures, pressures and at any humidity, time of response (t90, t50), time of recovery (t10, t50), over-range and stability.

The Premium Line is manufactured in Japan exclusively for NET and includes sensors for CO, NO, NO2, H2S, SO2, HCl, Cl2, Ethylene, Formaldehyde, Hydrogen Peroxide, NH3 (available in 4 different ranges) and the new H2S-HT and CO-HT cell for high temperatures.
