Hydrogen Gas Analyzer
Hydrogen and alternative-fuel development requires accurate hydrogen measurement across changing concentrations, transient operating conditions and moisture-rich sample gases. Reliable measurements are particularly important when evaluating unburned hydrogen, combustion efficiency, fuel-cell crossover and potential hydrogen accumulation.
HyEVO is a high-accuracy, high-resolution hydrogen gas analyzer designed to measure hydrogen directly in moisture-rich sample gas and respond to transient changes in concentration. This helps engineers obtain representative hydrogen measurements while reducing the additional sample handling associated with moisture removal.
HyEVO supports research across mobility, energy and power-generation applications, including hydrogen internal combustion engines, fuel cells, water electrolysis, gas turbines, boilers and synthetic-fuel production. It can also support hydrogen-related research involving ammonia and other processes that produce, convert or use hydrogen.
As part of HORIBA ONE PLATFORM, HyEVO can be operated and monitored alongside compatible HORIBA measurement systems through a common software environment. This helps engineers coordinate equipment, monitor system conditions and manage data collection across complex hydrogen and alternative-fuel testing environments.
Dr. Hyunwook Park, Dr. Junsun Lee and HORIBA Korea representatives discuss how HyEVO supports accurate and safer hydrogen engine testing at KIMM.
Hydrogen combustion and fuel-cell exhaust can contain high concentrations of water vapor. HyEVO directly measures hydrogen in sample gas containing up to 35% moisture without first removing the moisture. This supports representative hydrogen measurement while reducing the additional sample handling and concentration recalculation associated with dehumidification.¹
¹ Use the optional dehumidifying cooler when measuring sample gas with a moisture concentration above 35%.
HyEVO combines high measurement accuracy and resolution with a response time of less than 1 second and a data-output frequency of 5 Hz. This allows engineers to monitor rapid changes in hydrogen concentration during combustion, calibration and system-development testing.
HyEVO has an approximate warm-up time of 3 hours—approximately one-third that of the conventional HORIBA MSHA-1000.² A power-saving standby function helps reduce power consumption while keeping the analyzer available for subsequent testing.

HyEVO integrates with HORIBA ONE PLATFORM, allowing it to operate alongside compatible HORIBA analyzers and measurement equipment through a common software environment.
Centralized control, system-status monitoring and coordinated data collection help laboratories manage complex hydrogen and alternative-fuel testing environments more efficiently.
HyEVO supports hydrogen measurement across mobility, energy, power-generation and research applications. It can also be combined with other HORIBA hydrogen test equipment to support more comprehensive development and validation environments.

HyEVO supports hydrogen measurement in combustion systems operating with pure hydrogen or hydrogen-containing fuel mixtures.
Example measurement configuration for evaluating unburned hydrogen, combustion efficiency and exhaust components during hydrogen-engine testing.
HyEVO measures unreacted hydrogen permeating through the electrolyte membrane, supporting the evaluation of hydrogen crossover and fuel-cell performance.
When combined with complementary HORIBA measurement equipment, the test configuration can also evaluate carbon dioxide in the fuel-cell exhaust and water quality in collected condensate.
