Applications

ATEX Intrinsically Safe In-line Hydrogen Process Analyzer H2scan’s HY-OPTIMA® 1700 series in-line, real time hydrogen-specific process analyzers are designed for ease of use, interface flexibility and true process control. The HY-OPTIMA 1700 series is an ATEX certified Intrinsically Safe (IS) device that incorporates our patented solid-state sensor and is configured to operate in background gas streams with up to 95% relative humidity and temperatures up to 60ºC. The HY-OPTIMA 1700 series is ideal for process gas applications where real time continuous measurements of hydrogen can increase process plant efficiencies, improve diagnostics and enhance maintenance management translating into higher profitability. The HY-OPTIMA® 1700 Series inline hydrogen process analyzer is ideal for gas streams where real-time, hydrogen-specific measurements can enhance process plant efficiencies, improve yields, and reduce maintenance costs.
