Wet Hydrogen Internal Oxygen Analysis System
For purity control during hydrogen purification by water electrolysis and performance evaluation of permeable membranes!
We have launched an (explosion-proof) oxygen concentration meter capable of measuring in ppm units, including a sampling device for measuring oxygen immediately after hydrogen purification by water electrolysis. ● Integrated sampling system ● Dual drain processing ● Measurement in ppm units ● Intrinsically safe explosion-proof certified product (overseas IEC/CSA certified) ● Galvanic battery type (electrochemical) patented sensor ● High response speed, long life, disposable proprietary developed patented sensor In hydrogen production through water electrolysis, if the performance of the permeable membrane is poor, oxygen ions can pass through the membrane, resulting in the generation of oxygen as an impurity. Therefore, by measuring the oxygen concentration immediately after the electrolytic cell, we evaluate the performance of the permeable membrane and manage the purity of hydrogen. Since oxygen in hydrogen can lead to high dew points and condensation, expertise such as drain removal is necessary for measurement. Utilizing our experience in oxygen concentration and dew point measurement, we have developed a product as a control panel that includes a sampling system.

basic information
Proton conductors are generally used for hydrogen permeable membranes. These are polymer membranes with a solid polymer structure. They are similar to the proton-type membranes commonly used in fuel cells, which include alkaline, proton, and solid oxide types. In separation membranes, a phenomenon occurs where oxygen ions (O2-) can permeate from the cathode to the anode due to the performance of the separation membrane. Therefore, it is important to measure the oxygen concentration in parts per million (PPM). Conversely, a phenomenon also occurs where hydrogen ions (H+) backflow from the cathode to the anode. If the proton separation membrane continues to be used, embrittlement occurs, leading to degradation, and the aforementioned tendencies become more pronounced. Such interfacial studies are being researched in the field of tribology.
