SBS SBS-H2
Hydrogen Gas Detector with Visual and Audible Alarms
The Storage Battery Systems SBS-H2 Hydrogen Gas Detector is a hydrogen detection system with visual and audible alarms and 1% and 2% hydrogen relays. The system comes with the main control, a hydrogen gas sensor, and a 25 foot cable. Users can connect the H2-FAN-12X12-110V Exhaust Fan (sold separately) to create an automated hydrogen ventilation process.
- Strobe light for visual alerts
- Fail-safe mode in event of loss of power
- Powered with AC and/or DC power
- Hydrogen detection system acts as monitor and alerts users upon detection of hydrogen
- Sensor consists of electronic sensing element whose electrical conductivity increases when hydrogen is detected at surface
- Conductivity of sensor is proportional to gas concentration
- Up to 3x sensors (additional sensors sold separately) can be installed to main control to meet space coverage requirements
- Modular design for optimal placement of sensor(s)
- Ideal for remote locations
- Strobe light for visual alerts
- Sensor status indicator LEDs on main control
- H2-FAN-12X12-110V Exhaust Fan (sold separately) enables automated hydrogen ventilation process which activates at 1% H₂ concentration detection level
- Wall or 2-gang junction box-mountable
- Easily accessible mechanical relays
- Warning 1% relay sounds during 15A at 120VAC, 10A at 277VAC, and 10A at 28VDC
- Alarm 2% relay sounds during 1A resistive at 30VDC and 0.5A at 125VAC
- Redundant power supply capability allows for dual AC and/or DC power supply connections
- DC power supply operates as backup power source in case of redundant power supply operation
- Indicator LEDs can be easily tested by pushing red TEST button
- Sensors can be field-tested with H2-TESTKIT Test Kit (sold separately)
- Fail-safe mode in event of loss of power
- Universal power inputs of 110V/220VAC and/or 12-48V DC input
- NRTL/C Certified to UL Std. No 61010-1
- Meets CAN/CSA-C22.2 No. 61010-1-12 standards

The Storage Battery Systems SBS-H2 Hydrogen Gas Detector is a hydrogen detection system with visual and audible alarms along with 1% and 2% hydrogen relays. The system comes with the main control, a highly accurate hydrogen gas sensor, and a 25 foot cable. The SBS-H2 can support up to three sensors (additional sensors sold separately) on the main unit with available wire length up to 100 feet to maximize reach. This unit can be powered with AC and/or DC power and can be mounted directly to a wall or to an electrical box, making it extremely versatile and user-friendly.
The SBS-H2 includes relays for remote connection to alarm or monitoring systems and for control of external relays or an exhaust fan.
If the concentration of hydrogen gas in the air surrounding the sensor reaches 1% by volume, the 1% WARNING yellow LED will light up on the main control of the unit. In addition, the 1% internal relay will de-energize and can be used to activate a remote exhaust fan. Users can utilize the H2-FAN-12X12-110V Exhaust Fan (sold separately) for an automated hydrogen ventilation process in which the fan will activate at the 1% H₂ concentration detection level.
If the hydrogen gas concentration reaches 2% by volume, the 2% ALARM red LED will light up, the strobe will flash, and an audible alarm will sound. In addition, the 2% internal relay will de-energize and can be used to activate a building management or alarm system.
