As hydrogen continues to increase in popularity, a particular focus is finding valves and components that are tough enough to stand up to hydrogen. By affecting the electrochemical kinetics of certain metals, hydrogen can cause pitting and acceleration of the rate of inter-granular corrosion of high-strength steels, titanium alloys and aluminum alloys, which are the most vulnerable metals. Additionally, the interaction of hydrogen and stress can result in escalated stress-corrosion cracking susceptibility of steel, particularly in welded joints.

Hydrogen is the most common chemical element in the universe, and is rapidly becoming more and more important in the sustainable energy supply. This increased demand, coupled with the stringent requirements for conversion and use, makes quality, safety and security of the utmost importance. Herose’s high-performance FullX hydrogen valves are the standout in the industry across the full range of hydrogen applications:
cryogenic equipment | cryogenic valves
The extremely low temperatures that cryogenic systems operate under causes materials to become brittle and more susceptible to damage. Any foreign particles such as dirt, dust or even water vapor can damage the system by scratching or abrading components. That, in turn, leads to leaks that can release cryogenic fluids and cause life-threatening situations.
From carbonating beverages to food packaging to medical treatments, pressurized gas touches nearly every part of our daily lives, whether we realize it or not. But keeping gases under pressure isn’t without highly dangerous and life-threatening risk. A lot can go sideways, and quickly, if proper safety protocols aren’t followed.
Once you’ve identified and installed the best flexible hose for your gas or cryogenic application, you can’t just set it and forget it. Just like the rest of the components of your system, regular inspection and maintenance is important for getting the most longevity out of your system.
