The Hydrogen Safety Panel is not aware of any detailed guidelines or requirements. There are general requirements for personal protective equipment (PPE) in relevant codes and standards, but these often defer to the manufacturers requirements or a material safety data sheet (MSDS) for specifics. Ultimately, PPE selection is a matter between the employer and the employee and may need to…
The code used for repair and alterations of an existing system depends on the code used for construction as well as on the requirements imposed by the jurisdiction. Note that getting a permit from the jurisdiction may be necessary for an extensive alteration.

The requirements of the code used for the original construction apply. The piping may meet the requirements of more than one code. In which case, the code used for changing the rating may be different than the original code of construction. In any case, the re-rated system should meet all of the requirements of the selected code. Note that if the original proof test of the system was… Category: Piping Keywords: Codes, Piping, Requirements
Safety codes globally have a requirement to provide a positive means to isolate energy sources and hazardous substances prior to performing maintenance. For gaseous hydrogen systems, methods such as a blind flange, a double block valve arrangement or a double block and bleed valve arrangement can provide that positive isolation. Installing a blind flange requires breaking the supply line… Category: Pressure Relief Devices Keywords: Valves, Codes
At least three of the ASME B31 piping codes are logical choices:
Considerations for code selection include:

The primary safety standards for applicable to this piping in the U.S. are ASME B31.3, B31.12, and NFPA 2. The editions used should be those adopted by the local jurisdiction. Design of an LH2 piping system should always be conducted and reviewed by engineers experienced in cryogenic piping design. The equipment should also be installed per NFPA 2 and NFPA 55. IT is recommended that the piping… Category: Piping Keywords: Piping, Liquid, Safety, Vacuum, Insulated, Standards

The lifetimes of these components will vary depending upon the application, their installation environment, and usage. It is also important to adhere to the component inspection, maintenance and replacement specifications as recommended by the manufacturer. However, as many are made of stainless steel, their life expectancy is longer than other materials. Estimated lifetimes are below in years… Category: System Design Keywords: Equipment, Liquid, System Design
In the U.S., liquid hydrogen fueling stations and dispensing equipment are addressed within NFPA 2, Chapter 11. Dispensing is covered within Section 11.3. When liquefied hydrogen is used as the supply for high pressure gaseous fueling, then Chapter 10 of NFPA 2 would apply.

If liquid hydrogen usage is sufficiently high at the fueling station, there may be no need to vent any boiloff generated from the LH2 storage tank. Boil-off gas should be minimized through system design, but where needed, the boil-off hydrogen along with any other hydrogen released must be vented through a local vent stack which is constructed to safely vent the hydrogen in accordance with CGA… Category: Fueling Stations Keywords: Fueling Station, Boil-off Gas, Venting
