Notes:

The systems used in the HCF, and the resulting commissioning requirements, will depend on the scope and complexity of the HCF. It is the intent of the Standard that all systems and equipment present in the design of the HCF within the divisions listed above are to be included within the scope of the commissioning process.

Architectural Systems (Interior Space Assemblies, Acoustic Barriers, and Acoustical Testing) are to be included in the scope of commissioning process.

Additional systems and divisions to be included within the OPR documents.

1.3 Terminology

In CSA standards, “shall” is used to express a requirement, i.e., a provision that the user is obliged to satisfy in order to comply with the standard; “should” is used to express a recommendation or that which is advised but not required; and “may” is used to express an option or that which is permissible within the limits of the standard.

Notes accompanying clauses do not include requirements or alternative requirements; the purpose of a note accompanying a clause is to separate from the text explanatory or informative material.

Notes to tables and figures are considered part of the table or figure and may be written as requirements.

Annexes are designated normative (mandatory) or informative (nonmandatory) to define their application.

1.1 General

This Standard establishes minimum requirements for pressure relief devices intended for use on fuel containers that comply with CSA/ANSI HGV 2, CSA B51, Part 2, or SAE J2579.

Pressure relief devices designed to comply with this Standard are intended to be used with hydrogen fuel complying with SAE J2719 or ISO 14687.

Pressure relief devices may be of any design or manufacturing method that meets the requirements of this Standard.

The construction of pressure relief devices, whether specifically covered in this Standard or not, are to be in accordance with reasonable concepts of safety, performance, and durability.

This Standard does not apply to reseating, resealing, or pressure activated devices.

1.2 Relevant documents

Documents that apply to hydrogen fuel vehicles and hydrogen fuel subsystems include SAE J2578 and SAE J2579.

Other regulations, standards, or codes might permit or require the use of pressure relief devices certified to comply with this Standard. Additional service conditions or requirements beyond the scope of this Standard are the responsibility of those standards development organizations or the authority having jurisdiction.

1.3 Informative annex

Annex A presents an informative record of the recommended fuel container, fuel storage subsystem, and vehicle level requirements that were identified by the PRD1/HPRD1 Joint Technical Advisory Group on Standards for Pressure Relief Devices for Natural Gas Vehicles (NGV) and Hydrogen Vehicle Fuel Containers during the development of this Standard. As this Standard contains component level requirements, these recommendations are outside the scope of this Standard.

Annex A statements are intended as recommendations for consideration of inclusion by the organizations and committees developing these subsystem and vehicle level standards.

1.4 Terminology

In this Standard, shall is used to express a requirement, i.e., a provision that the user is obliged to satisfy in order to comply with the Standard; should is used to express a recommendation or that which is advised but not required; and may is used to express an option or that which is permissible within the limits of the Standard.

Notes accompanying clauses do not include requirements or alternative requirements; the purpose of a note accompanying a clause is to separate from the text explanatory or informative material.

Notes to tables and figures are considered part of the table or figure and may be written as requirements.

Annexes are designated normative (mandatory) or informative (non-mandatory) to define their application.

1.5 Units

The values given in SI units are the units of record for the purposes of this Standard. The values given in parentheses are for information and comparison only.

This part of ISO 16110 applies to packaged, self-contained or factory matched hydrogen generation systems with a capacity of less than 400 m3/h at 0 °C and 101,325 kPa, herein referred to as hydrogen generators, that convert an input fuel to a hydrogen-rich stream of composition and conditions suitable for the type of device using the hydrogen (e.g. a fuel cell power system or a hydrogen compression, storage and delivery system).

It applies to hydrogen generators using one or a combination of the following input fuels:

⎯ natural gas and other methane-rich gases derived from renewable (biomass) or fossil fuel sources, e.g. landfill gas, digester gas, coal mine gas;

⎯ fuels derived from oil refining, e.g. diesel, gasoline, kerosene, liquefied petroleum gases such as propane and butane;

⎯ alcohols, esters, ethers, aldehydes, ketones, Fischer-Tropsch liquids and other suitable hydrogen-rich organic compounds derived from renewable (biomass) or fossil fuel sources, e.g. methanol, ethanol, di-methyl ether, biodiesel;

⎯ gaseous mixtures containing hydrogen gas, e.g. synthesis gas, town gas.

This part of ISO 16110 is applicable to stationary hydrogen generators intended for indoor and outdoor commercial, industrial, light industrial and residential use.

It aims to cover all significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant to hydrogen generators, with the exception of those associated with environmental compatibility (installation conditions), when they are used as intended and under the conditions foreseen by the manufacturer.

NOTE A list of significant hazards and hazardous situations dealt with in this part of ISO 16110 is found in Annex A.

This part of ISO 16110 is a product safety standard suitable for conformity assessment as stated in IEC Guide 104, ISO/IEC Guide 51 and ISO/IEC Guide 7.
