July 2, 2014 - Servomex will resell H2scan hydrogen sensors to provide complete light hydrocarbon measurement and analytical solutions to its HP and NG customers. H2scan’s hydrogen-specific sensing system is able to detect hydrogen against virtually any background gases without false readings or expensive support equipment required. Rhys Jenkins, Market Sector Manager at Servomex, explains: “Unlike thermal conductivity sensors, the H2scan does not require significant application development for each mix of hydrocarbon gases, yet it exceeds industry standards. The combination of the two new and innovative technologies in the H2scan and SpectraScan is a head on challenge to traditional GC industry options for hydrocarbon sensing.
The result is superior, yet simpler detection for HP and NG applications at considerably lower implementation and product lifetime costs for our customers.” The H2scan patented “Chip on a flex” technology provides a far more robust and reliable direct measurement of hydrogen than any thermal conductivity sensor, making it a natural collaborative partner for the SpectraScan “Tunable Filter Spectroscopy” optical sensor. As an out-of-the box solution, the H2scan is easily configurable alongside the SpectraScan and comes with customer support that matches Servomex’s own customer-centric ethos. Michael Nofal, Vice President Sales & Business Development at H2scan said: “Our hydrogen specific sensing systems based on a patented "Chip on a flex" technology have the ability to operate in real-time.
This is important for the SERVOTOUGH SpectraScan which also operates in real time, unlike GC technologies which have a time lag. We also bring a host of benefits in terms of the lowest total cost of ownership, low maintenance and longer calibration intervals, simple system integration and installation and tolerance to harsh background contaminants.”
