Helium VS Hydrogen - One Sheet

Replace Helium with Hydrogen
for GC
Cost
The cost of helium supply is rising and has been
rising for decades, but recently customers have
seen a sharp increase.

Supply
Labs in many regions of the world are struggling
to source helium as limited stocks are reserved for
critical applications such as MRI scanners.

Hydrogen Gas Generators for GC
A hydrogen gas generator offers many benefits over helium cylinder supplies. Whilst costs for helium continue to
rise and availability becomes increasingly scarce, a hydrogen generator providing carrier gas to your GC will not
only remove the troubles of helium supply but can also improve the efficiency of your GC analysis. A hydrogen
generator is:

Convenient
No changing cylinders or
running out during analysis

Safe
No material handling or risk
of leak or explosion

Consistent
Constant quality and purity of
gas, no risk of contamination

Green
Reduce carbon footprint by
eliminating recurring
gas deliveries

Efficient
Streamline workflow, faster
sample throughput

Compact
Stackable, small footprint,
saves space in laboratory

Precision Hydrogen Trace
GC carrier gas at the push of a button
The Precision Hydrogen Trace generator is designed primarily for GC carrier gas use.
Capable of supplying multiple GC instruments, the Precision Hydrogen Trace can also supply
detectors needing flame gas such as FID and FPD.

. 250cc/min, 500cc/min and 1200cc/min models
producing 99.99999%* purity of hydrogen
. Suitable for flame gas and carrier gas at trace
detection limits
. Internal leak detection with automatic shutdown
features and minimal storage of hydrogen in the
system for a safe carrier gas source
. Compact, space-saving modular design
