New dedicated gas analyzer for hydrogen-cooled generators covers operation and maintenance needs

Michell Instruments has added an analyzer dedicated to monitoring hydrogen-cooled electricity generators to its current range of moisture and oxygen analyzers. The XTC601 for hydrogen cooled generators has been designed with three phase profiles to cover all of the gas analysis requirements for operation and maintenance. Hydrogen is used as a coolant in generators because it is the most efficient cooling agent available, having the highest thermal conductivity of all gases, allowing it to quickly draw heat away from the stator. A secondary benefit of using hydrogen is its low density, which reduces drag on the brushes making the generator work more efficiently.
