Hydrogen cooled turbine generators are very common in the power
industry. Leak checking these generators. In the past helium could
be used as the tracer gas. Hydrogen leak detectors can also be
effective for this application using a 5% hydrogen/95% nitrogen
tracer gas. This is important as this is a green label
non-combustible gas.
The Loktracer TLD.500 hydrogen leak detector is capable of finding
a leak of less than 1 gram/yr while being priced at an industry
low $961.
