HGD-5000-ST Hydrogen Gas Detector, Battery Room Exhaust Fan, Strobe Alarm, and Test Kit
Overview
The HGD-5000-ST , , , and is a comprehensive, all-in-one hydrogen safety solution designed for battery rooms, substations, data centers, and industrial environments. This system combines real-time gas detection, automated ventilation, and routine testing capabilities to ensure continuous safety and compliance.
At the core of the system is the , engineered with a 10-year lifespan and replaceable sensor for long-term reliability. The detector continuously monitors hydrogen gas levels and integrates with facility systems to activate alarms, ventilation, and external alerts when thresholds are exceeded.
The included delivers 1050 CFM of forced-air ventilation to help purge hydrogen, flammable vapors, and toxic gases from confined spaces. Designed for seamless integration with the , the fan can be automatically activated via internal relays, creating a responsive and effective ventilation system.
To ensure ongoing performance and compliance, the system also includes the . This reusable kit provides two along with the necessary regulator, tubing, and applicator cone, enabling quick and reliable verification of detector functionality.
The incorporates enhanced safety and performance upgrades, including increased airflow, dedicated grounding and bonding, improved fuse protection, upgraded terminals, and a durable all-metal construction—all while maintaining the same form, fit, and installation requirements.
The delivers both audible and visual alerts, featuring 32 selectable tones, a high-intensity 10-LED strobe, and low power consumption—allowing multiple units to operate from a single HGD-5000.
Together, these components form a complete hydrogen safety ecosystem—detecting hazards, responding automatically, and enabling routine verification—making the HGD-5000-ST an ideal solution for facilities seeking a reliable, cost-effective, and easy-to-deploy hydrogen gas safety system.
