Passive Autocatalytic Recombiner NuRAPh2

  • Operation without external energy supply or intervention
  • Improved safety margin against hydrogen risk by lowering the ignition threshold to 0.5% of hydrogen concentration
  • Optimising natural convection for stack design and improving recombination performance
  • Modular product with configurable reaction surface and stack height to optimally meet the expected recombination requirements
  • To reduce congestion in comparison to conventional recombiners, suitable for rooms with low ceilings
  • Stainless steel construction for high durability, (excluding fixing systems and catalytic blocks)
  • Robust mechanical assembly design ensures reliability and accessibility
  • Once in place, the catalytic converters operate completely independently,  Their light and compact design, combined with  drawer installations, allowing easy maintenance and control
    The NuRAPh2 recombiner technology is patented.
  • Optimal performance in a reduced congestion due to its honeycombe structure, providing a large exchange surface for the catalytic reaction
  • Catalytic reaction initiation from 0,5% and nominal recombination rate at 1% H2 to 100% rH at 20°C (experimentally qualified at full scale)
  • Thermal disperion limited to the catalytic blocks
  • Seismic anti-aggression and operating resistance
  • No alterations of the recombiners characteristics in the presence of CO and CO2

Description

Passive Autocatalytic Recombiner

NuRAPh2 is a passive autocatalytic recombiner that secures the intergrity of installations against hydrogen risks.

It can be customised to meet  protection needs and adapts to the environmental constraints of the premises to be protected.

It contains catalytic substrates with a «honeycombe» structure that allows hydrogen to be recombined as low as 0,5% of hydrogen concentration, even under extreme humidity conditions.
