Hydrogen storage and transport
The transport, storage and transfer processes of hydrogen not only require reliable connection solutions, but also precise monitoring of all relevant parameters. HARTING offers customised complete solutions that can be integrated into mobile hydrogen containers to save space and fit perfectly.
There are various ways of storing hydrogen
In gaseous form in pressurised tanks or underground cavern storage facilities under high pressure
In liquid form in insulated cryogenic tanks at a temperature of -253 °C
Adsorbed in suitable solids such as carbon or certain metals (metal hydride storage)
Adsorbed in suitable liquid carrier media, e.g. oil (liquid organic hydrogen carrier)
The stored hydrogen can be transported by truck, ship or rail in various states of aggregation or as a carrier medium.
The storage of hydrogen is a key aspect of the energy transition. The aim is to make this versatile energy carrier available for a wide range of applications. Why the storage of hydrogen is so important is explained below:
Transportation and Storage Solutions
This is how HARTING products and solutions assist in the storage and transport of hydrogen. Discover our application possibilities here:
In the areas relating to the production (electrolysis), storage, distribution and filling of hydrogen, modular and individually configurable components as well as customised system solutions from HARTING are used. We specialise in providing system solutions and offer electrical distribution boxes that meet the requirements of our customers. Our system solutions are customised to ensure precise and space-saving integration. They consist of assemblies with plug connectors and connection distribution boxes. The electrical distribution boxes are ATEX-approved.
Our commitment to customization and space optimization is further exemplified by our connectivity boxes, which are available in both stainless steel (grades V2A and V4A) and powder-coated steel. These boxes are engineered to provide robust and space-efficient connectivity options that seamlessly integrate into your existing infrastructure.
Understanding the importance of safety, we also supply intrinsically safe Ex-i solutions suitable for all types of signals. This ensures that our systems can be deployed in environments where safety is of paramount concern. Additionally, we offer the capability for valve control through pneumatic connections, adding another layer of precision and reliability to our solutions.
