Suitable to accept large samples like sheet metal or welding specimen according to AWS A4.3.

Accurate and rapid diffusible hydrogen measurements allow you to avoid embrittlement, hydrogen-induced cracking and other costly failures.
Hydrogen-induced damage is a wide-spread and dreaded phenomenon. During welding, hydrogen is generated from the dissociation of water vapor (e.g. humidity) or hydrocarbons in the welding arc, and the molten metal can rapidly pick up hydrogen. Once in the metal, hydrogen atoms can diffuse swiftly inside the microstructure of the metal. Diffusible hydrogen causes hydrogen induced cracking (also known as cold or delayed cracking), where components fail under the influence of mechanical stress - suddenly and without prior indication. Thus, diffusible hydrogen is critical to assess because of embrittlement, hydrogen induced or assisted cracking (HIC/HAC) or hydrogen delayed fracture among other damaging effects.

Key Benefits:

High-end, long term stable thermal conductivity detector (TCD) with dedicated reference gas channel, heat exchanger and ng/g analysis capabilities
Unique infrared (IR) furnace with low thermal mass for accurate temperature control, programmable rapid heating (and cooling) up to 900°C accepting large samples
Optional thermocouple kit for direct sample temperature readings
Additional resistance heated furnace for higher temperatures up to 1100 °C as option
Automatic and reliable gas calibration with hydrogen or helium over the entire measurement range by the integrated gas dosing unit with 10 different volumes
Optional interface to external sampling canisters to cover the GC method of ISO 3690
G4 PHOENIX MS with quadrupole mass spectrometer improves the detection limit by more than one order of magnitude, enabling evaluation of ultra-low diffusible hydrogen concentrations or isotopes and studies of different hydrogen traps in steel

Why Do I Need Diffusible Hydrogen Analysis?

Hydrogen induced cracking and embrittlement is a dangerous phenomenon. Although high-strengths steels and oxygenated copper grades are particular susceptible to hydrogen embrittlement, an uptake of diffusible hydrogen affects many more metals but depends to a large extend on the environmental and process conditions, like ambient moisture. There is a risk to introduce hydrogen in every mechanical, thermal and galvanic manufacturing step, especially during welding and soldering.
The rapid method applied by the G4 PHEONIX can deliver results in less than 30 min, whereas traditional methods require multiple days. Thus, it is the only method allowing a feasible pre-welding testing for diffusible hydrogen. This allows users to optimize their process to avoid costly failures, before they are done.
