What Are the Safety Standards for Hydrogen Compressors?

Introduction:
Hydrogen is highly flammable, and only strict adherence to safety standards can guarantee safe compression and storage.

Outline:

  • Overview of hydrogen compressor hazards

  • Key international standards (ISO 19880-1, ASME, API)

  • Explosion-proof design requirements

  • Safety devices (relief valves, gas detectors)

  • Certification processes and audits

Hydrogen compressors operate under high-risk conditions. Understanding and complying with safety standards is critical for both manufacturers and end users.

International Guidelines

Standards such as ISO 19880-1 and ASME BPVC govern the design and installation of hydrogen systems.

Explosion-Proof Design

Hydrogen’s flammability requires intrinsic safety mechanisms including relief valves, spark-proof materials, and gas detectors.

Testing and Certification

Hydrogen compressors must undergo rigorous testing—leak, pressure, burst tests—to meet global certifications.

After reading Keepwin’s article on diaphragm-compressor selection and maintenance, I now have a clear, structured understanding of the critical factors for compressing high-purity gases such as hydrogen and oxygen. The post combines solid data and API 618 references with a real 90-bar project case in Iran, convincingly showcasing Keepwin’s customization capabilities and delivery strength. The inclusion of ROI calculations and maintenance cost comparisons was especially user-oriented, directly addressing the pain points engineers face when choosing equipment. I’m looking forward to more content like this!
