[0021] The outlet end of the filter 3 is connected with the inlet end of the pressure reducing valve 4 through the connecting pipe 8, so that the purified hydrogen sample enters into the pressure reducing valve 4 to reduce the pressure, so as to realize the pressure regulation of the sample gas. The outlet end of the pressure reducing valve 4 is connected with the inlet end of the drying pipe 5 through the connecting pipe 8, so that the purified hydrogen sample enters into the drying pipe 5 to dry and further remove impurities.
