ISO publishes TS 19880-1 for hydrogen fueling stations
01 July 2016
ISO has published TS 19880-1 for hydrogen fueling stations (Earlier post.) ISO 19880 recommends the minimum design characteristics for safety and, where appropriate, for performance of public and non-public fueling stations that dispense gaseous hydrogen to light-duty fuel cell electric vehicles. The standard can be purchased from the ISO Web site.
ISO 19880 can also be used as guidance for fueling buses, trams, motorcycles and fork-lift truck applications, with hydrogen storage capacities outside of current published fuelling protocol standards, such as SAE J2601.
Residential applications to fuel land vehicles and non-public demonstration fueling stations are not included in ISO/TS 19880-1:2016.
The standard provides guidance on the following elements of a fueling station:
hydrogen production/delivery system;
delivery of hydrogen by pipeline, trucked in gaseous and/or liquid hydrogen, or metal hydride storage trailers;
on-site hydrogen generators using water electrolysis process or hydrogen generators using fuel processing technologies;
liquid hydrogen storage;
hydrogen purification systems, as applicable;
gaseous hydrogen compression;
pumps and vaporizers;
gaseous hydrogen buffer storage;
pre-cooling device; and
gaseous hydrogen dispensers.
