G8 Galileo ONH Analyzer

The Galileo 8 O, N, H analyzer is a sophisticated instrument typically used for analyzing oxygen (O), nitrogen (N), and hydrogen (H) content in metallic and non-metallic materials. It’s commonly employed in materials science, metallurgy, and quality control. Oxygen (O), Nitrogen (N), and Hydrogen (H) are key non-metal elements that influence the quality, durability, and strength of metal materials. Unlike metal alloy components, their levels can vary significantly throughout the production process—from raw materials to the finished product.

It is also equipped with a unique external IR-furnace (IRO7) for diffusible hydrogen determination whose low thermal mass, enables accurate temperature control and rapid heating for the efficient extraction and analysis of diffusible hydrogen in various materials.

Key Benefits:

Advanced water-cooled electrode furnace with Fusion Control, water cooled sample port, high capacity dust trap, followed by efficient in-line particle filtering

• Smart Molecule Sequence™ : Direct and unadulterated measurements of all emitted gases by state-of-the-art detectors with reference channels
• Automatic and reliable gas calibration with 10 different volumes available

Limit of Detection

• All state-of-the-art detectors used in the G8 GALILEO are equipped with internal reference channels for utmost stability and allow detection limits in a sub-ppm range (based on 1g sample mass).

Typical Application:

Metallurgy and Metal Production

• Steel and alloy production: Determining residual gas content (O, N, H) to ensure desired mechanical properties.
• Titanium and zirconium alloys: Monitoring gas levels that affect corrosion resistance and
• Copper and aluminum production: Analyzing oxygen levels that influence conductivity and casting properties.

Powder Metallurgy

• Quality control of metal powders: Measuring gas content to optimize sintering and mechanical properties.
• Additive manufacturing (3D printing): Ensuring metal powders meet gas content specs for high-performance components.

Manufacturing and Heat Treatment

• Control after heat treatment processes: Verifying gas content post-process to avoid embrittlement or strength reduction.
• Welding analysis: Checking hydrogen levels that could lead to cracking in weld

Research and Development

• Materials characterization: For new alloys and composites where gas interactions are

Failure analysis: Determining if excessive gas levels contributed to material failure (e.g., hydrogen embrittlement).
