The Swagelok® Tubing System Design Elements, Hydrogen Applications

Tubing System Design for Hydrogen Applications

The Swagelok® Tubing System Design Elements, Hydrogen Applications

Hydrogen illustration (H2)One of the most formidable challenges in the development of safe, dependable, and leak-tight hydrogen fluid systems is the nature of hydrogen itself. Designing tubing systems to overcome these challenges requires the right components, the right materials, the right expertise, and the right training. That is why we developed the Swagelok® Tubing System Design Elements for hydrogen applications (SWAGE-TSDE-H2). This course provides training for those responsible for designing hydrogen tubing systems.

About the Course

Target Audience

This course is aimed at existing and graduate design/engineering discipline personnel who require increased awareness of fluid system and small-bore tubing design in accordance industry best practices.

Course Format

Designing, engineering, installing, and maintaining a high-performance hydrogen tubing system for maximum safety and integrity means starting with the basics. That is why this training program provides in-depth, comprehensive focus areas beginning with a foundational understanding of H2 and progressing through critical aspects such as industry standards, materials science, tubing system design, leak detection, system integrity and maintenance considerations.

The course combines theoretical instruction with hands-on activities including tube fitting installation, basic tube bending, and leak detection to provide attendees with an in-depth understanding of the design considerations for tubing systems in hydrogen applications.

Successful attendees will receive a Swagelok® Certificate of Completion which is valid for three years. For added customer assurance, training certificates are tracked using a centralized Swagelok Customer Training Records System. This enables those who have completed the course and their employers quick and easy verification of training records.

Course Duration

One and a half (1.5) days in-person.

Instructor

This course is facilitated by a Swagelok-certified subject matter expert.
