Safety & Quality: Our first focus


Every HySTAT system is designed from an integrated safety perspective:
1st priority: elimination of actions likely to create a hazardous situation; 2nd priority: prevention of hazardous situations by integrated safety features; 3rd priority: mitigation of the effects of an occurring incident. PROFIsafe protocol ensuring a safe shut down in case of control failure (PLC) Fail safe logic for all parameters (over 30 parameters controlled) Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS): ensures a safe shutdown in case of power failure Constant monitoring of gas purity (HTO) Inherent safe design (passive safety) allowing the unit to perform emergency depressurization mechanically when the control features are down

Safety & Quality: Our first focus


Minimal gas presence in the system (only few Nm3 at full production) Multiple redundancy on critical safety parameters. Safety switched on critical parameters triggering an alarm or stopping the unit (eg. electrolyte level, cell stack t, pressure in the system,). Complete risk evaluation process performed ISO 9001, 14001 and OHSAS 18001 Following the most stringent standards:
EC (ATEX directive 94/9/EC), (NRTL or Rostechnadzor as an option) New Machine Directive (2006/42/EC)

ISO 22734/1 (onsite hydrogen generation) and ISO 12100 (safety of machinery).
