Aluminum Liquid Hydrogen Analyzer

The Hydrogen Meter is a specialized testing device independently designed and manufactured by our company for qualitative detection of hydrogen content in molten casting aluminum. Despite being an economical model, its simple operation and rapid testing capabilities make it the preferred choice for many experienced manufacturers.

動作原理
Based on the reduced pressure solidification method, the test sample solidifies under vacuum conditions. During this process, hydrogen dissolved in the molten aluminum gradually precipitates, forming bubbles inside or on the surface of the sample. The hydrogen content is evaluated by:

1. Observing surface irregularities or the number of pores in cross-sectional slices
2. Checking for cauliflower-like surface appearance (indicating higher hydrogen content)
3. Determining suitability for casting based on gas porosity levels

Key Features:

1. Mobile Structure: Enables gas content testing at multiple fixed locations with a single device
2. Rapid Analysis: Completes aluminum melt analysis within 5 minutes under foundry conditions
3. Reliable Results: Combines multiple analytical methods for accurate quality assessment and production guidance
4. Durable Construction:
   • No consumable parts, low operating costs
   • Simple operation requiring minimal operator experience (basic training sufficient)
   • Corrosion-resistant design with minimal maintenance requirements
5. Robust Vacuum Chamber: Eliminates fragile glass dome components
6. Environmental Adaptability: Suitable for complex furnace-side environments

Sample Evaluation Methods

A. Surface Observation Method

1. Examine the top surface of the vacuum-cooled sample:
   • Cauliflower-like protrusions or significant bulging indicate high hydrogen content
   • Smooth/slightly concave surface suggests low gas content suitable for casting

B. Cross-Sectional Porosity Analysis

1. Slice the sample and observe pore distribution
2. Polish the cross-section, perform acid etching, and evaluate degassing effectiveness according to national pinhole grade standards

C. Aluminum Density Measurement

1. Weigh the cooled sample (W₁) in air using an electronic balance
2. Suspend the sample in water with known density and measure submerged weight (W₂)
3. Calculate hydrogen content using:
   • Relative Density Method: α = W₂/W₁ (Higher α indicates lower gas content)
   • Absolute Density Method: ρ = W₁·ρ_water/(W₁-W₂) (Higher sample density correlates with lower porosity)
