The Agilent 8890 GC, equipped with a special helium-based ionisation detector, offers a more precise method for identifying tiny amounts of impurities in highly pure hydrogen. This system uses helium gas to detect particles like carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, and methane at very low levels. By utilising helium in this way, the detector can provide more accurate results, ensuring that the hydrogen gas meets high purity standards. This technology is crucial for industries that require exceptionally pure hydrogen, as even small impurities can affect performance and safety. We believe that smaller helium applications such as ionisation detectors for gas chromatography will grow once the market supply eases over the coming years.
