Peak Scientific Hydrogen Trace Generator for FID, FPD, ICP-MS & GC Applications

The Peak Scientific Hydrogen Trace Generator delivers ultra-high purity hydrogen gas (99.99999%) with a maximum flow rate of 250 cc/min and pressure up to 100 psi (6.9 bar). Specifically designed for laboratory integration, it supplies reliable on-demand hydrogen gas as a carrier or collision gas for flame ionization detectors (FID), flame photometric detectors (FPD), inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), and gas chromatography (GC) systems.

This generator employs a Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) technology to electrolyze deionised water, creating pure hydrogen gas. The process includes a trace dryer block and a pressure swing adsorption (PSA) dryer to reduce moisture to trace levels, critical for sensitive analytical instruments in molecular diagnostics and bioprocessing applications. Its compact, modular design makes it suitable for labs with limited space and eliminates the logistical and safety challenges associated with high-pressure hydrogen cylinders.

Key operational safety features include an internal leak detection system that automatically shuts down the generator upon detecting leaks, ensuring safe use in biotechnology and clinical research environments. Maintenance is simplified with the replacement of only the de-ionizer cartridges, reducing operational costs. Multiple units can be stacked for higher flow rates, supporting scalable demands in biopharmaceutical production pipelines and synthetic biology research requiring consistent hydrogen supply.

Ideal for biotechnology laboratories engaging in gene editing workflows, live-cell imaging, and fluorescence analysis, this hydrogen generator aligns with the stringent quality demands of molecular cloning workflows and biomanufacturing processes. Its reliable hydrogen supply enhances instrument performance across a range of analytical techniques critical for clinical diagnostics and advanced cell imaging research.
