Oil-free compressors for hydrogen refuelling stations

Compressed air for valve technology and control processes

Hydrogen refuelling stations require compressed air to operate pneumatic valves and control processes. Typically, this involves clearly defined switching operations and recurring load cycles during plant operation. The compressed air is used in particular as control air.

Whilst screw or turbo compressors are used for very high flow rates, reciprocating compressors are particularly suitable for clearly defined pressure ranges and medium flow rates. High-pressure compressors are used for the actual hydrogen refuelling process.

Oil-free piston compressors from Dürr Technik are particularly suitable for hydrogen refuelling stations, as they supply compressed air free of oil and thus enable a clean compressed air supply for valves and control systems. They are designed for continuous operation and cyclical load profiles, thereby ensuring reliable operation.

Thanks to their compact design and various IP protection ratings, the compressors can be easily integrated into modular filling station systems and containerised solutions.

We would be happy to advise you on the right compressed air solution for your hydrogen refuelling station.
