RESQ-TAPE H2-DETECT
SPITA ResQ tape H2-Detect is a passive color-changing self-adhesive silicone tape to detect hydrogen gas (H2) leaks in fuel cells, transmissions, storage and generation facilities. The tape sticks only to itself and can be applied on all types of connectors, fittings, valves, flanges and connections susceptible to vibration damage. Can be removed easily using a utility knife and will leave no residue.

FEATURES
After applying ResQ-tape H2-Detect the layers will create within seconds a solid bond and will remain flexible under all circumstances.
 
Upon contact with concentrated hydrogen gas, the color of the tape changes from gray to black in the event of a leak due to damage or seal / joint failure.
Depending on the severity, duration or location of the leak, the localized connection may be partially or gradually darkened. In the event of partial discoloration, contact your maintenance team for confirmation of a leak.
NO LEAK DETECTED LEAK DETECTED
By wrapping the tape over a system connection, the quality of the seal can be quickly checked. If the tape is discolored during a routine check, the connection can be immediately restored. This significantly increases the security of the system.
