SANHA is H2 ready!

The time has come: Our piping system NiroSan® Gas is H2 ready. After extensive tests, the DBI-Gastechnologisches Institut e.V. in Freiberg has awarded this quality mark. This means that the system is suitable for transporting up to 100 % hydrogen.

The path to a sustainable energy supply is paved, among other things, by hydrogen. This includes heat supply for households as well as applications in industry and commerce and even transport. In order to transport the medium safely, we have been the first manufacturer of piping systems to offer a KIWA-certified system with SANHA®-Press Gas (copper) since 2020. With NiroSan® Gas made of stainless steel, another high quality certified piping system is now available.

Safe transport

The provision of piping systems for the safe transport of all kinds of media has always been our core task. Added to this are environmental and climate protection considerations and the likely increasing use of H2 in many areas. Therefore, it was obvious to also develop piping systems for the use of hydrogen.

This commitment led to the SANHA®-Press Gas copper piping system being tested and certified by the Dutch certification institute KIWA in 2020. It is thus approved for hydrogen transport inside buildings. The extensive product range includes dimensions from 15 to 54 mm.

The fittings and tubes of the NiroSan® Gas system are made of the particularly high-quality material 1.4404, which is characterised by a high molybdenum content of at least 2.3 % and a low carbon content. In combination, this leads to a comparatively high corrosion resistance, among other things.

In addition, the piping system can be installed easily and quickly. Fittings as well as pipes are available up to a dimension of 108 mm. This makes it possible to realise hydrogen projects in almost any common size.

Use of H2 in our own factories

Especially in the industrial sector, we can already provide various references for complex hydrogen installations. These include the use as welding gas and the supply of industrial furnaces. Hydrogen is also used for various processes in our own German pipe and fitting plants in Berlin and Großharthau-Schmiedefeld. Of course, we can also contribute this expertise to future projects.

So if you want to be prepared for tomorrow today, you are ideally equipped with NiroSan® Gas. Natural gas can be transported today, a mixture of natural gas and hydrogen tomorrow and pure hydrogen the day after tomorrow without having to replace the piping system.

Are you interested in a cooperation in the field of hydrogen, in demo projects or real applications?
