Electrolyzer safety

The purity alarm is a threshold, not a warning.
Crossover often develops gradually, as membrane behaviour drifts, impurities accumulate and operating envelopes tighten. It can also rise quickly: a pressure imbalance, a seal failure, a pinhole or a faulty analyser will not announce itself on a trend. The gradual case is the one a trend can catch, and by the time the purity alarm fires the response options have already narrowed.
