Hydrogen
Stockcode:
Reliable pressure measurement for the hydrogen industry, from production and storage of pure hydrogen to the use in mobility and power generation.
The key component of Trafag’s pressure transmitters are pressure sensors based on thin-film-on-steel technology (fully welded design without O-ring). The sensor technology comes from Trafag’s own production and was developed inhouse together with the tailored ASIC (application-specific microchip) for the sensor signal processing. As a result, pressure sensor and electronics work in perfect partnership and achieve a unique level of long-term stability and reliability, even under the most adverse environmental conditions.
To comply with the hydrogen specific requirements for pressure measurement, such as embrittlement and permeation, Trafag qualified a special steel alloy for pressure sensors in contact with hydrogen. This specific steel alloy, a nitrogen-strenghened austenitic steel, is both hydrogen-compatible and features also all the material properties which are necessary to build robust, accurate and long-term stable pressure sensors.
