H2scan

Hydrogen gas sensing and safety.

Gas Detection & AnalysisWe represent & distribute this line.

H2scan makes solid-state hydrogen sensors and the monitors, analyzers and displays built around them. The line splits three ways: area safety monitors that watch a room for a hydrogen leak, process analyzers that measure hydrogen concentration inside a process stream, and transformer monitors that read dissolved hydrogen in oil as an early indicator of a fault. The selling point across all three is that the sensing element is solid-state and self-calibrating, so the instruments are meant to run without the routine calibration and consumable replacement that hydrogen detection has traditionally required.

What we carry, by measurement

Pick what you’re measuring.

Fixed monitors that watch a space for hydrogen accumulation. Choose first by the area classification and the certification the site requires, then by mounting and how the signal gets back.

HY-ALERTA 5020 and 5021 solid-state area hydrogen monitor

Maintenance-free solid-state area monitor for battery rooms and energy storage facilities, with self-calibrating technology that H2scan states needs no calibration or board replacement over its operating life.

Use it whenUse it as the default in a battery room or energy storage building, especially where the site has been burned by the recurring calibration and sensor-replacement cost of conventional detectors. This is the one to lead with when the customer's real complaint is maintenance, not detection.

HY-ALERTA 5320 intrinsically safe hydrogen area monitor

Compact intrinsically safe area monitor with wall or ceiling mounting options, for environments where hydrogen leaks can be hazardous.

Use it whenUse it when the installation requires an intrinsically safe approach rather than an explosion-proof enclosure, and where a compact device has to go up on a wall or ceiling.

HY-ALERTA 2620 explosion proof area hydrogen monitor

Explosion-proof area monitor for hazardous locations, ceiling or wall mounted.

Use it whenUse it when the area classification calls for an explosion-proof enclosure. Between this and the 5320, the deciding factor is which protection method the site's electrical classification and the engineer's practice call for.

HY-ALERTA 600B fixed area hydrogen monitor

Fixed area monitor with RS422 capability that extends the interface between sensor and controller over a long distance.

Use it whenUse it when the sensor has to sit far from its controller -- the RS422 link is the reason to pick this one over the others, because it lets you put the electronics somewhere accessible and the sensor where the hydrogen would collect.

Cross-references & replacements

Replacing an existing H2scan product, or cross-referencing from another manufacturer? Send the old part number or a photo of the nameplate. Cross-references and sizing are at no charge, and we’d rather tell you an equivalent won’t work than sell you one that doesn’t.
