1. Flammability
- Hydrogen in gaseous state is inert. Hydrogen gas can only be explosive, if mixed with oxygen in fully contained environment at the ratio of 4xO to 1xH.
- Flame arrestor set into the Hydrogen gas flow process is a one-way valve eliminating any risk of spark and/or flame flowback to the Hydrogen gas storage cylinder.
- Flame arrestors used in the GHP™ kit are BAM manufactured, tested, and certified to BAM / ZBA / 007 / 03 Standards Compliance.
2. Storage & Leakage
- Hydrogen gas cylinders are either vented to the outside atmosphere or via a controlled mechanism when encased and stored in a designated box.
- Hydrogen Gas is 3x lighter than Helium gas and innately rises into the atmosphere upon release from its storage cylinder.
- High-pressure hosing is made of Kevlar, a lightweight, heat-resistant, and very durable material.
3. Hydrogen Gas Cylinders
- Hydrogen gas cylinders are manufactured internally of 5mm thick mild steel and capable of enduring direct impact in an incident and/or accident unlike Aluminum alloy metals.
- Hydrogen gas cylinders are capable of being stored outdoors, up to 65 degrees Celsius direct heat is tolerable.
- Hydrogen gas cylinders are manufactured to ISO EN 12205 – 2001 / TPED 99 / 36 CE Standards Compliance.
4. Pressure Control
- Hydrogen gas cylinders accept expansion of stored gas up to 5x fill pressure of 200 bar. Hosing transferring gas from cylinder into an engine’s combustion process is of high-pressure capacity accepting up to 5x its transfer pressure of 200 bar.
- High-pressure hosing is manufactured to BS EN ISO 14113:1997 Standards Compliance.
- Automatic Relief Valves permit instant dump of gas,
if the cylinder pressure becomes unstable.
5. Flow Consistency
- Use of 2-stage pressure reducing regulators ensures consistency of Hydrogen flow as cylinder fill depletes. As the engine remains unchanged, it operates on its standard fuel if Hydrogen gas runs out.
- The pressure reducing regulator lowers transfer pressure from stored 200 bar down to 10 bar for injection into engine’s combustion process. Regulators are manufactured to ISO 2503 Standards Compliance.
- Shutoff solenoids are used as safety measure to close hydrogen flow into engine when operator stops engine. They operate as fully open or fully closed via an associated on / off switch. Shutoff solenoids used in the GHP™ kit are fuel quality valves, compatible with Hydrogen gas and manufactured to ISO / CE 400325 – 142 Standards Compliance.
6. Installation
- GHP™ kits require skilled installation. Mechanics, mechatronics, and technicians are contracted product installers and members of the GHP™ installer team following completion of Hydrogen technology and installation training with the GHP™ IP Owners.
- Our selected master mechanics team train local mechanics to install kits and provide easy to use installation manual. We are not liable for installations done independently by the end-customers and / or mechanics without a GHP training.
- Product installations are conducted in compliance with published standards for the GHP™ product.
