2240 - Portable Hydrogen Leak Detector

What is the effect of ammonia on the H2 sensor?


What is the effect of ammonia on the H2 sensor?

NH4, or ammonia, could have an effect on the sensor. There is the concern that NH4 would break down on the surface, "potentially" causing a false H2 reading. While this is not proven, we simply don't have much testing with ammonia in relation to our sensor technology.

Another area of concern is that ammonia in combination with any moisture would become corrosive and begin to break down the housing of our unit which is aluminum.

We are looking into this issue, but at this time more testing needs to be done.
