Many chromatographers have switched from Helium to Hydrogen as a carrier gas. In recent years, the availability of helium has decreased and the cost has increased significantly. Parker Balston Hydrogen Generators will provide pure hydrogen in a convenient, safe, and economical manner as an alternative to gas cylinders. Parker Balston Hydrogen Generators are designed to operate continuously 24 hours a day/7 days a week without operator attention. Models are available with flow capacities up to 1,200 cc/min. Parker Balston Hydrogen Generators are certified for laboratory use by CSA, IEC 1010, and CE.
