Key Features
A

Ultra High Pressure

Working pressure up to 70 MPa for the most demanding hydrogen storage and distribution applications.

B

Thermally Activated Pressure Relief

Fuse metal and glass bulb elements vent gas when the valve is exposed to excessive heat. Both are fitted on the HC, HE, HK, HS, HSL, EP and DRV models; YHT models use a glass bulb only and the YEX-1100 has neither.

C

KGS Certification

KGS certification on 10 of the 13 models. Certification varies by model — see the product table.

D

EC79 & R134 Models

Selected models carry EC79 and UN ECE R134 approvals, the regulations for hydrogen vehicle components — see the product table.

E

Wide Thread Range

Multiple inlet and outlet thread configurations to match all standard cylinder and connection types.

F

Quick-Connect Option

DRV-350 quick-on-type outlet for fast and safe cylinder connection without tools.

G

Explosion-Proof

YEX-1100 rated to IEC60079 and IECEx for safe installation in hazardous hydrogen environments.

H

13 Model Range

13 models across nine series covering 3–70 MPa service, from the 3 MPa YEX-1100 to 70 MPa cylinder valves.

I

CSEL & KHK Models

CSEL and KHK certifications are listed on selected models — see the product table.

J

H₂ Ready

Designed for hydrogen gas service. Certification varies by model — see the product table.
