Addendum **IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ BEFORE INSTALLATION AND OPERATION** 75-850-BV Hydrogen Separator with Bypass Valve June 2025 This addendum describes the procedure and gas connection changes required for the newly updated palladium tube in this hydrogen separator. Changes: • The separator must be heated up to operating or conditioning temperature with either helium or nitrogen flowing through the sweep-gas inlet. This gas will be referred to as the heat/...
350°C. e. Allow ½ hour for the tube to stabilize at 350°C and verify there is limited breakthrough with a hydrogen sample. SWEEP GAS IN 3 WAY VALVE HELIUM (CONDITION/ OPERATION GAS) NITROGEN (HEAT/COOL GAS) Figure 1 75-850-BV Hydrogen Separator with Bypass Valve 6/25 GOW-MAC Instrument Co.

Connect one end of another piece of the supplied tubing to "TO INST" fitting located on the side of the Model 75-850-BV or 75-852-BV and the other end of the tubing to "FROM SEP" fitting located on the rear of the GC.
If the hydrogen starts to prevent the analysis from being performed, lower the HELIUM flow to see if the quality of the analysis improves. If it does not, recondition the Separator as directed in instructions found later in this manual entitled, " Hydrogen Breakthrough." GOW-MAC Instrument Co.
