To ensure efficient and reliable refuelling of the buses, the hydrogen supplied must first be compressed. Refuelling takes place by transferring the hydrogen from the filling station's storage tanks to the vehicles' fuel tanks based on the pressure difference between the two.
Fast refuelling is ensured by the precise interaction between the storage tanks and the MRE 1300 diaphragm compressor, which flexibly draws hydrogen from a pre-pressure range of 50-300 bar from the tube trailer and compresses it to 480 bar. The hydrogen is then made available in the storage tanks for refuelling.
