Mr. Hydrogen (TM) - $3600 + Purifier Module

Complete hydrogen purification system for laboratory or light production use. Your choice of purifier module plus a heater, a temperature controller, a fixed bleed regulator, insulation, fittings, and a nice box; 120V or 240 V operation.

Please tell us about your needs and applications. There is a very good chance I have dealt with a project similar to the one you're working on. I can help you better if I know your specifics.



You can e-mail us directly at reb@rebresearch.com or contact us through other means.
