Our laboratory Hydrogen generators use the newest membrane technology for the electrolytic production of pure H2 gas. This technology was preferred over alternative hydrogen-generating techniques because it is clean, requires less maintenance and there is no need to store chemicals to maintain operation. Hydrogen is produced by electrolysis of water through a polymer membrane. Only pure water, either distilled or deionised, is required to provide trouble-free long term operation.
Each system includes an integrated dryer to remove any moisture and has a range of safety features built-in. Such features include automatic leak detection, automatic shut down when the flow rate drops or when the internal pressure gets too high.
The Apex Laboratory Hydrogen generator range is available in many sizes with output ranging from 0.15 litres per minute up to 3 litres per minute. Contact us to request more information and we will be happy to advise which of our range best suits your requirements.
