The development of the compressor has a centuries-old history and it can be recognized as a symbol of technological progress. A typical example of a compressor is the hydrogen compressor, which is required for the transmission and compression of hydrogen in many areas of modern industry. Meanwhile, the hydrogen compressor meets this social demand.
Compressed hydrogen can be used in many scenarios, such as hydrogen pipeline transport and compressed hydrogen tube trailer transport. In addition to this, industrial hydrogen compressors play a huge role in modern industry. In this report, we will focus on how to use hydrogen compressors safely.
The common types of hydrogen compressors
What are the precautions when using a hydrogen compressor?
The justifications for using a hydrogen compressor
Currently, there are many different types of hydrogen compressors and in today's international market they can be divided into two categories according to the principle: volumetric and speed compressor. At the same time, the volumetric type is the most common type. Volumetric compressors are divided into the reciprocating piston and rotary compressors, while velocity compressors can be divided into rotary and screw compressors. The different types of hydrogen compressors correspond to their respective use scenarios and they have different characteristics. For example, screw compressors are mainly used in large refrigeration plants.
·Avoiding contact with oil
The oil-free lubricated hermetic hydrogen compressor is one of our carefully designed and manufactured products. Meanwhile, the main feature of the hydrogen compressor is also oil-free. It is important to avoid contact between the hydrogen compressor and oil when using it, not only for the sake of compressed hydrogen not being contaminated by oil, but also for safety reasons.
·Regular maintenance
The crankshaft, connecting rod, and crosshead components are the main moving parts of a hydrogen compressor. During the operation of a hydrogen compressor, the crankshaft, connecting rods and crosshead parts are subject to reciprocating movements and these parts are prone to wear. The crankshaft is known to rotate rapidly when the hydrogen compressor is running under a motor drive. Once the wear is severe it can affect the quality of operation and needs to be detected and discontinued. Timely inspection and maintenance are very important to ensure the safety and stability of the hydrogen compressor. Generally, the interval for checking hydrogen compressors is 3 to 6 months.
These are the main points to note when using a hydrogen compressor. A series of precautions are taken not only to ensure the efficiency of the hydrogen compressor but also to prolong the life of the compressor. Although our hydrogen compressors are designed to be very safe, safety issues should not be ignored.
A hydrogen compressor can be defined as a sustainable piece of equipment because it can produce hydrogen from renewable energy sources. Generally speaking, energy sources such as wind, solar or hydropower can be converted into hydrogen, which can then be stored and transported with the help of a hydrogen compressor. In this way, the sustainable use of natural resources can be combined with prosperity and development. In addition to this, our hydrogen compressors are designed to be easy to operate, safe and reliable, and have a complete range of units. Meanwhile, medical hydrogen compressor can be applied in hospitals and play a considerable role.
