Hydrogen Purity for {Bright Annealing and Sintering}
Surface oxidation, decarburisation, and finish inconsistency trace directly to atmosphere contamination — whether from cylinder supply or an on-site system not performing consistently. The specification that matters is purity at the furnace inlet, batch after batch.

Where Hydrogen Supply [Creates Cost] and [Quality Risk in Metal Heat Treatment]
Metal fabricators encounter hydrogen risk from two directions, depending on their current supply arrangement. If you are on cylinder supply, the exposure is purity variation, delivery dependency, and handling cost. If you are already on on-site generation, the constraint is typically dew point consistency, purity maintenance under variable load, or the maintenance burden of a system that was not specified for your current throughput.
Cylinder supply: purity and dew point variation between deliveries, furnace downtime from delayed supply, high handling costs across multi-furnace operations
Existing on-site systems: dew point control and purity consistency that were adequate at initial scale become constraints as throughput grows
Both: maintenance burden and total cost of older generation equipment that was not specified for modern process demands
HYDGEN systems address both risk profiles — delivering atmosphere-grade hydrogen at production scale, with the modularity to grow alongside your processing capacity.

Frequently Asked Questions
What hydrogen purity is required for bright annealing stainless steel?
Bright annealing of stainless steel requires hydrogen at ≥99.999% (5N) purity with dew point controlled to -60°C or below at the furnace inlet. Oxygen and moisture are the critical impurities. Higher-specification nickel alloy annealing may require 6N purity.
Is on-site hydrogen generation suitable for sintering furnaces?
Yes. Sintering requires a controlled reducing hydrogen atmosphere. On-site generation provides the purity consistency and continuous supply sintering processes require, without the batch-to-batch variation of cylinder hydrogen. It is typically more cost-effective above approximately 200–500 Nm³/day
What is the dew point of hydrogen produced by PEM electrolysis?
Hydrogen from PEM electrolysis typically achieves a dew point of -60°C to -70°C after drying — meeting or exceeding the dew point specification for most bright annealing and sintering applications.
How does on-site hydrogen generation compare to cylinder supply for annealing operations?
Above approximately 100–300 Nm³/day consumption, on-site generation typically offers lower total cost of ownership than cylinder supply. Capital cost is usually offset within 2–5 years for mid-scale annealing operations.
Can HYDGEN systems supply multiple annealing furnaces simultaneously?
Yes. HYDGEN's modular architecture supports multi-furnace operations through parallel generator configuration with centralised or distributed manifold systems matched to your facility layout.
