Principle and Gas flow diagram
The sample is placed in a graphite crucible and the crucible is maintained between the upper and the lower electrode of the impulse furnace. A high current power passes through the crucible to create a high temperature.
The oxide in the sample reacts with the graphite crucible, and is extracted as carbon monoxide (CO), and carried together with the carrier gas. The extracted gas is directly analysed after the dust filter. According to the oxygen concentration, it is determined by CO or CO2 after pass throw oxidizer (Copper Oxide) with a non dispersive Infra-Red analyser (NDIR).
The Hydrogen is determined with a non dispersive Infra Red analyser as H2O after H2 passes through the oxidizer (Copper Oxide).
The Nitrogen in the sample is extracted as nitrogen gas (N2) and its concentration is determined by a thermal conductivity detector (TCD).
Super High Performance
Wide range and high accuracy measurement
*Range: Oxygen:
0-5%, Nitrogen: 0-3%, Hydrogen: 0-0.25%
*Accuracy:
σn-1≦0.3ppm or CV≦1.0% for STD sample
σn-1≦0.02ppm or CV≦0.5% for Reference gas
*Accuracy H:
σn-1≦0.04ppm or RSD≦2.0% for Reference gas
Double detectors of oxygen (CO and CO2), long type cell and optimized design of TCD provide wide range measurements.
Optimization of the signal processing reduces by half the electrical noise compared to conventional model.

Hydrogen Analysis in steel and metals: Solid Extraction or Fusion
EMGA has been designed for accurate measurements of hydrogen content in different sample types such as ferrous metals, non-ferrous metals, semiconductors or electronic materials. The hydrogen content is extracted by fusion of the sample in inert gas and analyzed by a high sensitivity thermal conductivity detector. It is also possible to avoid fusion and extract hydrogen content in the sample by heating below the melting point. The purpose of this note is to explain when to use fusion or solid extraction, the benefits, the applications and samples.
The Hydrogen Analysis of Solid Samples
Each year the marketplace sees increasing demands for the analysis of hydrogen contained in various sample materials.
