Application
The hydrogen produced in the electrolyser is temporarily stored in a gas storage tank. Depending on the design of the gas storage tank, either a flexible diaphragm of plastic or a floating roof is used for volume equalization. The gas volume and gas pressure are measured continuously to ensure reliable and safe operation.
