IS 16735 : 2018 Cylinders for on-Board Storage of Compressed Gaseous Hydrogen and Hydrogen Blends as a Fuel for Automotive Vehicles-Specification

ICS 23.020.30; 43.060.40 MED 16

1 SCOPE

1.1 This standard specifies the requirements for refillable cylinders of water capacity not exceeding 500 litre intended only for the on-board storage of highpressure compressed gaseous hydrogen or hydrogen blends on automotive vehicles. This standard is applicable for cylinders of steel, aluminium or nonmetallic construction material, using any design or method of manufacture suitable for its specified service conditions. This standard applies to the following types of cylinder designs:

a) Type 1 - Metal cylinders; and

b) Type 3 - Fully wrapped composite cylinders with a metal liner.

1.2 This standard is not applicable for cylinders used for solid, liquid hydrogen or hybrid cryogenic highpressure hydrogen storage applications.
