BS ISO 16110-1 provides requirements and recommendations relating to hydrogen generators using fuel-processing technologies so as to promote:
High performance is not to be obtained at the expense of the essential factors mentioned above.
The machine concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations and events are covered are indicated in the scope of this part of BS ISO 16110.
Part 1 of BS ISO 16110 applies to packaged, self-contained or factory matched hydrogen generation systems with a capacity of less than 400 m3/h at 0 °C and 101,325 kPa, herein referred to as hydrogen generators, that convert an input fuel to a hydrogen-rich stream of composition and conditions suitable for the type of device using the hydrogen (e.g. a fuel cell power system or a hydrogen compression, storage and delivery system).
It applies to hydrogen generators using one or a combination of the following input fuels:
This standard is applicable to stationary hydrogen generators intended for indoor and outdoor commercial, industrial, light industrial and residential use.
It aims to cover all significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant to hydrogen generators, with the exception of those associated with environmental compatibility (installation conditions), when they are used as intended and under the conditions foreseen by the manufacturer.
A list of significant hazards and hazardous situations dealt covered by BS ISO 16110-1 is also included.
The standard is a product safety standard suitable for conformity assessment as stated in IEC Guide 104, ISO/IEC Guide 51 and ISO/IEC Guide 7.
