The Pfeiffer Vacuum Adixen H2000 Series Hydrogen Leak Detectors are fast, easy to use and durable. The H2000 Series is a unique instrument for industrial leak detection and tightness control. It is small, robust, and extremely sensitive to hydrogen gas. It can be used to detect leaks as small as 5 x 10
-7 mbarl/s. It is also insensitive to other gases and has a unique capability of handling background levels of hydrogen gas. In other words, everything required for sensitive and reliable testing.
The Adixen H2000 Plus Pfeiffer Vacuum Hydrogen Leak Detector may still be available for purchase and support from Artisan Technology Group beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).
Functions
Designed to detect and precisely locate hydrogen leaks using forming gas (5% hydrogen in nitrogen) as tracer, the equipment features high sensitivity to hydrogen concentrations while remaining tolerant to interfering gases. It supports semi-quantitative leak detection with audio-visual cues and an auto-ranging sensitivity mode for identifying leaks from very small sizes (~5 x 10^-7 mbar·l/s) up to occasional large leaks. The robust, user-friendly instrument enables rapid leak pinpointing without frequent calibration or adjustments and interfaces with various probes and accessories for tailored tracer gas filling and leak testing setups.
Platforms
Dedicated hydrogen leak detection system employing thermal conductivity-based sensing for precise H2 gas identification in various industrial environments. Utilizes specialized detection chambers with high sensitivity for hydrogen molecules down to ppm levels. Compatible with pressure and vacuum systems including process piping, storage tanks, fuel cells, and semiconductor manufacturing equipment. Features analog/digital outputs for integration with control systems and data acquisition hardware. Operates effectively across temperature ranges from 5°C to 40°C with humidity tolerance up to 80% non-condensing. Requires standard power inputs and can interface with automated test systems via RS-232/485 communication protocols.
Applications
Designed for sensitive detection of hydrogen leaks using tracer gas mixtures (5% hydrogen in nitrogen), this leak detector is suited for production and maintenance environments where precise pinpointing of leaks is required, including those that would allow leakage of liquids like water, fuel, or oils. Its robustness and tolerance to high gas concentrations enable reliable detection across a wide leak size range, facilitating rapid quality control, leak testing, and maintenance in vacuum systems, industrial facilities, and assembly line leak verification. The instrument supports integration with tracer gas filling and fixture control setups for automated or manual leak inspection workflows.
Accessories
