The benefits of using hydrogen as a GC carrier gas are proven: faster analysis, greater resolution and longer column life. In addition with the price of non-renewable helium increasing at a rapid rate, hydrogen is now also considered to be the cost effective option. Nevertheless, major concerns with safety continue to prevail. The F-DGSi ALLIANCE hydrogen generators improve the safety levels in the laboratory

The F-DGSi H2 generator saves space and eliminates the risks associated with storing high pressure cylinders, but also the hidden costs associated with piping connections, manometers, ordering, renting, delivering, servicing and maintaining cylinders.

The exclusive safety on the market to use H2 as carrier gas: don’t be afraid anymore to use H2 gas as carrier gas: thanks to our H2 sensor controlled by our H2 generator: in case of any leak inside the oven of the GC, the H2 generator will stop to produce. The system's internal self-diagnostic features, high visibility lighted display, internal/external leak

detection and all the intelligent remote control and safety alarm capabilities increase lab safety and productivity.

The exclusive "No Maintenance" gas column dryer regeneration system eliminates all down time for maintenance that is typical of other systems on the market, guaranteeing the best hydrogen purity at all times. The exclusive cascading option allows up to 10 units to be connected in series, producing flow rates up to 12 litres/min! This feature gives the capacity to supply H2 simultaneously to multiple GC and GCMS units.

The modular generator design allows it to be used individually or coupled to any one of the Zero air generators to form an all-in-one FID Gas Station solution for GC combustion detector applications.

The exclusive high pressure: the Hydrogen generator is able to give an outlet pressure up to 16 bar as an option.This unique feature opens a wide range of new applications like: the operation of fuel cell, as well the filling of low pressure metal hydride canisters for operating portable GC or mobile systems.

F-DGS i offers 4 x ranges of laboratory hydrogen gas generators LC-H2 99.9995%, ND-H2 99.9995%, PAR-H2 99.9999%, WM-H2 99.99999%

With flow rates from 120 cc/min to 1200 cc/min depending on the models
