H2 Trailer Filling
Compressor Solutions for Hydrogen Trailer Filling
Hydrogen fuel stations for heavy-duty vehicles demand a large amount of hydrogen. Shipped by GH2 trailers, the increased amount of hydrogen requires compressor systems with a sufficiently high flow.
Burckhardt Compression is the global market leader in the field of reciprocating compressors. Its compressor systems are used in the upstream oil & gas, gas transport and storage, refinery, chemical, petrochemical and industrial gas sectors. We offer oil-free high-pressure compressor systems maintaining hydrogen quality according to SAE J-2719.
