MHM-2020 Hydrogen Maser Highlights
Reliability
The lifetime cost of ownership for active masers is a critical consideration. The MHM-2020 is designed for long life and low maintenance. The hydrogen supply is adequate for over 20 years of operation. An efficient hydrogen state selector minimizes the load on ion pumps (< 0.01 mole per year), and the pumps themselves are designed for greater than 20 years of life at nominal hydrogen flux. The Teflon™ bulb coating virtually eliminates any re-coating requirement and has a demonstrated life of over 20 years. Should it be required, the MHM-2020 is designed for on-site module replacement.
Coordinated Universal Time (UTC)
UTC is the global standard for the time of day. It is used to synchronize power grids, cell phone networks and satellite communications across the world. The time is created by a weighted average of approximately 400 different types of atomic clocks located around the global. In June 2022, we had 59 masers contributing to UTC, the most masers of any manufacturer.
