Precise tests on components carrying hydrogen make a valuable contribution to environmentally-friendly innovations in vehicle construction. Tested components that fulfil the legal specifications are important elements in the development of future technologies for automobile manufacturers and their suppliers.
Hydrogen counts as the energy carrier for the future, which is already being used today as a fuel for fuel cell-operated vehicles. The hydrogen is either stored cryogenically in liquid form (LH2, liquid H2) or compressed under high pressure at 350 bar or 700 bar (CGH2, Compressed Gaseous Hydrogen) respectively. Due to its extremely good diffusion and reaction capacity, hydrogen places significant demands on this technology's pressure components. The high pressure reservoirs, tank valves, filling nozzles, connection elements and safety and pressure control valves used must be pressure resistant and leak-proof. In order to verify these properties in the development phase and also in subsequent series production, reliable testing and handling technology plays a key role. Maximator faces this challenge with innovative high pressure testing technology.
