H2Connect - Hydrogen Dispenser
H2Connect is the latest-generation hydrogen dispenser for light and medium-duty vehicles (cars, buses and trucks), serving as the critical interface between hydrogen fueling system and the fuel cell vehicle. It has demonstrated its effectiveness through over 750,000 successful fuelings across more than 100 operational units, spanning all generations of the product.
Options
- H35 - for buses
- H70 - for cars and trucks
Cavendish’s standard products are tailored and combined to create customized hydrogen fueling solutions.
That ensures project specific needs are met efficiently and effectively.
Key benefits
Safety:
The dispenser design complies with the IEC-61511 functional safety standard and incorporates multiple safety features such as:
- A shear valve disconnecting the hydrogen supply during emergencies
- A breakaway coupling protecting the vehicle and dispenser if a vehicle drives away with the nozzle still connected
- A breakaway coupling sensor immediately alerting the operator when activated
- A tilt sensor detecting unusual mechanical influences, such as a vehicle colliding with the dispenser
- Gas detection monitoring for leaks within the dispenser, including breakaway coupling
- Safety software and hardware mitigating hazards such as overtemperature, overpressure, leaks, and excessive mass flow
Reliability:
- The Global Monitoring System (GMS), with operational data since 2015, providing valuable insights into component statistics and enables predictive maintenance
- GMS providing time-series data with resolutions up to 100 datapoints per second, enabling highly detailed analysis
User Experience:
- A display and speaker offering a user-friendly introduction video for payment and fueling processes.
- The IFSF interface ensuring seamless integration with external payment systems.
- A Pit Box to simplifying civil works and installation, eliminating the need for a separate heat exchanger near or beneath the dispenser
- Fully compliant with the SAE J2601 standard.
