High-Pressure Hydrogen Regulator

Kawasaki Heavy Industries, Ltd. has developed a “high-pressure hydrogen regulator” for Daimler, a major German automobile manufacturer, which has been adopted in a new model of fuel cell vehicle, the Mercedes-Benz “GLC F-CELL”.

This high-pressure hydrogen regulator is the fruit of joint development with NuCellSys, a subsidiary of Daimler. The product plays the important role of reducing the pressure of the hydrogen gas, which is supplied from the hydrogen tank installed on a fuel cell vehicle at extremely high pressures of approx. 700 atmospheres, until the pressure which almost can be used in the fuel cell stack*1.
