4.1.2 Hydrogen system shall be manufactured according to the product drawing and other technical documents approved in accordance with established procedures and shall meet those specified in this standard. The hydrogen system shall be so designed that the quantity of high pressure pipeline connection point is minimized so as to ensure convenient construction, good sealing condition and convenient inspection and maintenance of pipeline connection point by design.
4.1.3 Materials contacting hydrogen in hydrogen system shall be compatible with hydrogen, and the influence of hydrogen embrittlement on the design service life of such materials shall be taken into full consideration.
4.1.4 Container unit arrangement shall ensure that the load distribution of vehicle at no load and full load conditions meets those specified in GB 7258.
4.1.5 Parts, elements and materials in hydrogen system, including container, pressure regulator, main shut off valve, pressure relief valve, pressure relief device, sealing element and pipeline, shall be acceptable products meeting those specified in relevant standard.
4.1.6 Main shut off valve, container check valve and pressure relief device (PRD) shall be integrated and installed at terminal of container. Operation of main shut off valve shall be of electric mode; the main shut off valve shall be at the place where the driver may operate it easily; in case of interruption of power supply, the main shut off valve shall be in auto-off mode.
4.1.7 There shall be overflow protective device or other measures shall be taken; when device used for detecting pressure in container or pipeline detects pressure abnormally reducing or flow abnormally increasing, hydrogen supply from container shall be able to be automatically stopped; if overflow protection valve is adopted, it shall be installed on main shut off valve or close to main shut off valve.
4.1.8 Manual shut off valve or other device shall be installed on the inlet line of each container, so that each container may be solely separated when filling and discharging hydrogen or in maintenance.
4.2 Hydrogen storage vessel and pipeline
4.2.1 Vehicle shall not be refilled with hydrogen by replacing container.
4.2.2 The installation position and direction of pipelines in the hydrogen system shall keep away (at least 200mm) from heat source and places where it's possible for electrical appliances and storage battery to generate arc. Especially, the pipeline joint shall not locate in confined space. The place of high pressure pipeline and parts where static electricity may be generated shall be grounded reliably or shall be taken with other measures controlling hydrogen leakage and concentration so that it is free from security problem even at the place generating static electricity.
4.2.3 Generally, hydrogen storage vessel and pipeline shall not be installed at such places with poor ventilation as passenger compartment, luggage compartment, etc.; if it is inevitable, vent line shall be designed or other measures shall be taken to timely release the hydrogen possibly leaked.
4.2.4 Hydrogen storage vessel and pipeline shall be firmly installed; there shall be protective gasket for buffering between fastening belt and container to avoid displacement and damage during driving. When container is full filled with hydrogen according to nominal working pressure, the parts fixed on the container shall be able to withstand the impact caused by vehicle acceleration or brake without looseness. The position possibly damaged shall be covered for protection. Container fastening bolt shall possess looseness-preventing device, and the tightening torque shall meet the design requirements. After the container is installed and fastened, 8g of impact force shall be able to be withstand in up, down, front, rear, left and right directions to ensure the container and fixing base are not damaged, and the relative displacement shall not exceed 13mm.
4.2.5 Metal parts supporting and fixing pipeline shall not directly contact the pipeline, except the condition that the supporting and fixing part is directly welded or connected with solder to pipeline.
4.2.6 Rigid pipeline shall be arranged reasonably and orderly, without collision or friction with adjacent parts; pipeline protective gasket shall be able to resist earthquake and eliminate the influence of expansion and contraction; when the pipeline bends, the appropriate curvature radius of center line shall be selected according to the bending deformation of the pipeline and meet the requirements of safe use; as for pipeline with both ends fixed, there shall be appropriate bend between its two ends, and the spacing of bearing points shall not be greater than 1m.
4.2.7 The installation positions of container and accessories shall be at least 100mm away from the vehicle edge, otherwise, protective measures shall be taken.
