Your trusted partner
Emerson offers reliable products and solutions for your applications across the entire hydrogen fuel value chain
Hydrogen offers exponential growth for green mobility initiatives and will power hundreds of thousands of new commercial trucks and other vehicles in the next decade. Fuel cell system manufacturers face pressure to scale up production for this rising demand while also maximizing the safety, efficiency and reliability of their products. Emerson’s certified components, designed specifically for the hydrogen market, provide a single-source answer to these challenges.
Pressure fluctuations can rob hydrogen fuel cells of peak efficiency and performance. Emerson’s hydrogen regulators and valves maximize efficiency by controlling pressure and flow to ensure continuous hydrogen fuel supply, even in extreme operating temperatures. These low- maintenance solutions provide optimal energy output, meet the latest global standards and help keep fleets on the road and out of the repair shop. With local manufacturing and support, Emerson is a partner you can rely on.
Hydrogen fuel cells require precision flow control designed for the hydrogen molecule’s small size and low ambient temperature density. Emerson’s proportional, solenoid and shutoff valves quickly and accurately adjust flow in relation to variable operating conditions. They are engineered specifically for hydrogen fuel; are rugged, lightweight and easy to install; and are part of a comprehensive, specialized portfolio of safe, compliant products for the burgeoning hydrogen fuel cell market.
You need expert solution partners who have the flexibility to meet a wide variety of demanding applications, from electrolyzers, hydrogen refueling station to fuel cells:
o Electrolysis processes need to be more efficient, reliable and safe than ever before
o Hydrogen filling stations require systems that meet the highest performance and safety standards.
o Fuel cells must offer greater reliability and a smaller footprint.
With growing interest in hydrogen-powered vehicles and power systems, and the push for greener energy, the demand for hydrogen is greater than ever before. With this increasing demand for Hydrogen fuel cell vehicles, customers are looking for safe, reliable equipment that operates efficiently under high pressure dispensing conditions.
Frequently Asked Questions about Hydrogen Fuel Cell Manufacturing
A fuel cell is a device that converts chemical energy into electricity. One of the most common types of fuel cells include PEM or Proton Exchange Membrane fuel cells which generates electricity via the hydrogen electrochemically reacting with oxygen while releasing only water (H2O) into the environment.
Hydrogen is an abundant element that, when harnessed for fuel cells, can provide green energy with zero carbon emissions.
Fuel cells can be used for an array of electricity needs, from power for on road vehicles including buses and trucks, to stationary power for buildings.
