NTM Sensors announces a new product - SenseH2TM Hydrogen Sensor
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
February 12, 2010
Lewis Center, OH
NTM Sensors, a newly created division of NexTech Materials, Ltd., is pleased to announce a new hydrogen sensor, SenseH2TM. With the tag line "We sense a GREEN future" NTM Sensors intends to introduce several new products aimed at reduction of greenhouse gas and polluting emissions.
NTM Sensors will make its debut at the Fuel Cell Expo in Japan on March 3rd where it will be accepting orders for the SenseH2TM products. Dr. Lora Thrun, Director of Commercialization, recently commented that "this innovative product represents a significant leap forward in hydrogen sensing technology and we are looking forward to its imminent release and commercial success."
Our first commercialized volume product, the SenseH2TM ,has been extensively beta tested for PEM fuel cell related applications, including forklift trucks, back-up power systems and electrolyzers. The sensor is a turn-key solution for many applications and includes a patented chemi-resistive sensor element, electronic controls, and an electronic signal output that is calibrated to measure hydrogen content in air, by providing a voltage output corresponding to 0 to 100% of the (LFL) lower flammability. It offers a unique combination of features: high selectivity to hydrogen yet insensitive to CO and CH4, rapid response and recovery, insensitivity to humidity, and linear and repeatable output corresponding to various concentrations of hydrogen. More information can be found in the technical data sheet available on our website.
NTM Sensor products are available directly through NTMSensors.com and through NexTech's sales distribution network. NexTech currently has distributors in South Korea, Japan, Taiwan, and Europe and is continuing to expand its distribution network throughout the world.
