The Safe Hydrogen Carrier Gas Solution for GC
28 Aug 2008The benefits of switching GC carrier gas from helium to hydrogen such as faster analysis and improved resolution have long been understood. Now, financial motives driving the change are gaining momentum due to the rising market price of helium amid supply shortages and the rising costs, both financial and environmental, of cylinder deliveries. Unfortunately, concerns with heightened safety risks when using hydrogen via high pressure cylinders cannot be completely allayed.
But now, the Parker domnick hunter H-MD hydrogen generator with highly sophisticated software control and alarm capabilities presents the GC user with the opportunity to reap all the benefits offered by hydrogen, at an affordable price without the need to worry about safety and environmental factors associated with cylinder-based supplies.
H-MD generators are available in three models to deliver varying flow rates of ultra high purity hydrogen (1 ppm total contaminants) to GC and GC/MS carrier gas and fuel gas applications. Sizes include 160, 250 and 500 ml/min.
