Hydrogen Sensor

Titanium underwater dissolved hydrogen sensor in the METS housing, detecting 4 to 100 nmol/l to 4000 m depth.

Description

Franatech's Hydrogen Sensor measures dissolved hydrogen underwater. It is provided in the same housing and with the same I/O as the METS methane sensor, has no internal moving parts or pumps, and its detectors can be tuned to requirements. The site cites a first field deployment at hydrothermal sites in the Marianas reported by AIST, Japan.
