Hydrogen gas transport

Before carrying or using hydrogen cylinders, increase your knowledge about the features and safety tips and dangers of this gas. Studying the safety data sheet of hydrogen gas related to Air products can be useful.

Never use the method of opening the valve and flowing hydrogen gas to remove the particles and dust present in the valves and external connections.
When moving the cylinder, avoid dropping, pulling, rolling and sliding it. For this purpose, use special cargo wheels.
When moving or lifting the cylinder, never hold the top cover of the cylinder.
When working with the valve on top of the cylinder, in case of any problem, avoid trying more and contact the sales representative of Apsol. Use only appropriate connections and never use converters to install valves and connections.
Always open the valve at the top of the cylinder slowly for more controlled pressure regulation.
Use pipes and devices that have enough tolerance and resistance against the maximum possible pressure.
Use suitable pressure reducing devices such as pressure reducing regulators or flow control valves so that hydrogen gas can be transferred to the system with high safety.
Use a proper check valve to prevent gas from returning to the cylinder.
At the end of working with the cylinder, it is necessary to close the valve above the cylinder and remove the excess gas in the system.
If the cylinder or the valve above it has a defect, quickly move the cylinder to a place outside the building and away from sources of ignition, and inform the Upsol sales representative.
All ventilation must be piped outside the building
