Applications

The H2scan GRIDSCAN^® 5000 Hydrogen Sensor pairs H2scans proprietary integrated circuit with the company’s field-proven solid-state hydrogen sensor. This stand-alone sensor system has been designed to provide precision hydrogen measurement for turnkey solution for utilities and transformer and monitoring OEMs. No calibrations or maintenance is needed for up to 10 years, and the GRIDSCAN 5000 offers great value per dollar that is very disruptive in the market. H2scan is the only company in the industry that can state retail sales of over 15,000 sensor systems worldwide with no after sale calibrations performed since 2012.

The GRIDSCAN 5000 Hydrogen Sensor is the industry’s #1 solid-state hydrogen sensor technology in a robust yet compact package. Rated for a wide temperature range and marine exposure, the GRIDSCAN 5000 Hydrogen Sensor installs directly onto a transformer and can withstand the harshest industrial applications including:

Small Distribution Transformers
Vault Transformers
Wind Farm Transformers
Railroad/Traction Transformers
Offshore platforms

Features

Precise Hydrogen Specific Measurements
Sensing device immersed directly in oil for hydrogen measurement
Functionality over a broad temperature range
High EMI/RFI rating
IP68 Ingress Protection.

GRIDSCAN 5000-HP

This high-performance enhancement to the original GRIDSCAN 5000 delivers superior accuracy of ±15 PPM or ±10% of the reading (whichever is greater). Available in both in-gas and in-oil versions, the GRIDSCAN 5000 HP offers a measurement range of 25 PPM to 5,000 PPM, providing utilities with enhanced capability to detect potential transformer issues before they escalate into costly failures

GRIDSCAN 5010

The GRIDSCAN 5010 features an innovative sensor design that eliminates measurement gaps by providing truly continuous transformer monitoring. Unlike traditional sensors that require periodic calibration interruptions, the GRIDSCAN 5010 perpetually auto-calibrates for uninterrupted monitoring of high-value transformer assets. This solution ensures asset managers never miss critical early warning signs of transformer deterioration.

Available in both in-gas and in-oil versions to operate in all known insulating liquids or the head-space of power transformers and ancillary equipment

GRIDSCAN 5015

The GRIDSCAN 5015 extends high-performance monitoring capabilities to environments with significantly higher hydrogen concentrations in the nitrogen blanket. With an impressive measurement range of 250 PPM to 50,000 PPM, the GRIDSCAN 5015 is specifically designed for transformers that experience more substantial gassing, such as those in renewable energy facilities with high harmonics and network transformers.

Able to operate in all the head-space of power transformers at nominal or very high hydrogen concentrations
