GAS DETECTION - HYDROGEN GAS

 

   

H2 - Hydrogen gas
Hydrogen is easily combustible, and together with oxygen, it forms the explosive oxy-hydrogen gas.

As the name suggests, a loud bang is heard when the gas is ignited. The waste product in the reaction consists of water vapor.

When burning hydrogen in air, in addition to water, some other substances are formed, mainly nitrogen compounds.

In a fuel cell you can make use of the energy which is formed in the reaction with oxygen in the air without getting other waste products than water.
 
Liquid hydrogen is used in rocket engines with liquid oxygen as oxidizer.
 
A great deal of hydrogen used in the petroleum industry when "upgrading" fossil fuels.

In the Fischer-Tropsch process hydro-carbons are formed from hydrogen and carbon monoxide.
 
Another major use of hydrogen exists in the production of ammonia. In the so-called Haber-Bosch process, nitrogen and hydrogen are mixed and subjected to high pressure and high temperatures whereby ammonia is formed.
 
N2 + 3H2 2NH3

The ammonia can then be used for example to produce manure.

Hydrogen is also used in the production of hydrochloric acid, methanol, and when hydrogenating fats.

ATEX Gas detectors are available for 2 explosion classes as follows:

Zone 1 is available with or without display.

Gas detectors for ATEX Zone 1 are located in a flameproof enclosure, EEx d

The shell is such that ignition and combustion within the shell of a potential explosive gas mixture is not propagated to the explosive mixture outside the enclosure and the enclosure can thus endure the resulting explosion pressure without damage.

In Zone 1, one can expect an explosive atmosphere to occur during normal operation but the presence of it is relatively short.

The equipment shall not be a source of ignition in normal operation or when an error occurs.

Gas detectors for ATEX Zone 2 are of the design Non-sparking EEx nA

EEx nA is a non-sparking piece equipment.

In Zone 2, you need not count with an explosive atmosphere to occur during normal operation, and if it should occur, which is probably rare it is of short duration.

The equipment shall not be a source of ignition during normal operation.
