Storage tank with hydrogen gas
Pressure measurement in a hydrogen gas storage tank
Process data
Measuring task:
Pressure measurement
Measuring point:
Tank
Measuring range up to:
1000 bar
Medium:
Hydrogen gas
Process temperature:
-40 … +50 °C

Diffusion, high pressures
Application
Storage tanks can store different amounts of hydrogen gas depending on their size, for example at a filling station or for transport. To be able to store as much hydrogen as possible, such tanks are pressurised up to 1,000 bar. At normal ambient temperatures, hydrogen is always in the gaseous state. Pressure sensors measure the pressure and regulate it as needed.
