Are faced with the challenge of converting their conventional combustion engine testbeds to run on hydrogen,” said David Bischof, Product Manager at HyTron. “Safety, i.e. avoiding gaseous and explosive chemicals, is the top priority. On the other hand, reproducible measurement of hydrogen consumption is extremely important to be able to validate and certify the entire hydrogen system, combustion engine or fuel cell. Our AVL HyTron is exactly the solution for that. “It is the industrialized and integrated solution for the safe supply of gas for development activities on the test bench with built-in consumption measurement.” Swagelok: A Reliable Partner According to AVL, its transition to hydrogen fuel technology has been made easier thanks to the collaboration with Swagelok Austria.
Swagelok is our most trusted partner in the area of hydrogen and hydrogen-compatible components,” says Sommer. “We trust in collaboration based on the experience of Swagelok (Austria).” Bischof adds: “Especially regarding product quality, we have had very good experiences with Swagelok components. It is essential for us to have the connection point under control so as not to risk a leak occurring on a client's remote test bench.” “What sets Swagelok apart from others is its knowledge of the hydrogen field and TÜV-certified BYB Directory measurement results,” comments Thomas Rothlaender, Development Project Manager at AVL, primarily responsible for HyTron measurement devices. Although AVL and Swagelok Austria have much in common, including a long history and shared values and business approach, the key component of the relationship has been trust based on mutual understanding, common goals and shared experience.
AVL trusts Swagelok Austria. And AVL trusts the Swagelok product. “The tube fitting for our hydrogen application ensures a tight seal that is absolutely critical to the safety of the system and employees.” “From our point of view,” says Rothlaender, “it is extremely important that the device is and remains sealed. Precisely because we fight against misconceptions about hydrogen that exist around the world. And the worst thing that can happen to us right now worldwide in terms of hydrogen is that there are accidents somewhere. That makes it all the more important that we supply airtight systems and demonstrate to our customers, and therefore the world, that hydrogen works well and is no more dangerous than the gasoline or diesel, which each of us uses every day. At that time, Swagelok was in fact the only supplier that could already present TÜV certificates that endorsed us, especially with hydrogen.
