Abstract :
A portable, low-power, battery operated hydrogen detection system has been developed and built. Significant performance advantage is achieved using Sandia National Laboratories´ robust, wide range hydrogen sensor technology. Features of the prototype system include dual set points with audible and flashing LCD alarms as well as direct readout in ppm of hydrogen gas concentration
