oxy-hydrogen machines revolutionize ampoule sealing. Clean, high-temperature flame ensures hermetic seals, reduces contamination risk, and cuts costs. Perfect for laboratory research.
The quality of ampoule sealing directly affects the sterility and stability of samples. Traditional gas/oxygen or LPG sealing processes suffer from unstable flame temperatures, carbon-containing impurities, and significant safety hazards.
Oxy-hydrogen machines (HHO gas) , as an emerging green energy technology, are revolutionizing the ampoule sealing process.
An oxy-hydrogen machine generates a mixed gas of hydrogen and oxygen (HHO gas) through the electrolysis of water (H₂O). Hydrogen acts as the fuel, while oxygen supports combustion, creating a high-temperature oxy-hydrogen flame for welding, sealing, and cutting when ignited. This technology is also known as "water-to-fire" technology, as its only raw materials are water and electricity.
Traditional fuels (such as acetylene and LPG) produce carbon particles and sulfides during combustion. These impurities may contaminate the ampoule mouth and even penetrate into the drug through micro-cracks. In contrast, the oxy-hydrogen flame produces only water vapor after combustion, with no toxic gas or smoke residue.
Ampoule sealing requires instant softening and fusion of glass. The oxy-hydrogen flame reaches temperatures of 2800-3000°C, with a concentrated and non-divergent flame, enabling:
- Rapid sealing with reduced heat-affected zone
- Smooth and rounded seals without burrs
- Excellent intra-batch and inter-batch consistency
Traditional fuels require high-pressure gas cylinder storage, posing leakage and explosion risks. Oxy-hydrogen machines produce gas on demand without storage, with low system pressure and multiple built-in flashback arrestors, eliminating safety hazards at the source.
Oxy-hydrogen welding machines require only water and electricity as consumables. Compared to traditional fuels like acetylene and propane, they can save fuel costs by 35%-70%.
