Hydrogen Tube Trailers and Skids (Type I)
Rein Hytec provides Type I hydrogen tube trailers designed for safe and efficient transportation of compressed hydrogen. Built with high-strength steel cylinders, these trailers offer reliable gas delivery, stable performance, and cost-effective solutions for industrial hydrogen supply, refueling stations, and energy projects.
Inquire Now What is a Hydrogen Tube Trailer (Type I)?
A Type I hydrogen tube trailer is a transport system that uses seamless steel cylinders to store and deliver compressed hydrogen gas. The cylinders are mounted on a trailer or skid, allowing hydrogen to be transported and used as a mobile gas supply unit.
Compared with advanced composite trailers, Type I systems are known for their durability, cost-effectiveness, and suitability for medium-pressure hydrogen transport applications.
How Hydrogen Tube Trailers Work
Hydrogen is compressed and filled into multiple steel cylinders mounted on the trailer. At the destination, the trailer connects to a pressure regulation system or cascade storage, supplying hydrogen based on system demand.
- High-pressure cylinders store hydrogen gas
- Trailer transports hydrogen to end users
- Gas is released through control valves and regulators
- System can operate as both transport and temporary storage
This flexible setup allows tube trailers to support hydrogen supply where pipelines or permanent infrastructure are not available.
Advantages of Type I Hydrogen Tube Trailers
- High reliability: Proven steel cylinder technology with stable performance
- Cost-effective solution: Lower initial investment compared to composite trailers
- Durable structure: Suitable for long-term industrial use
- Flexible deployment: Easy integration into different hydrogen supply systems
- Low lifecycle cost: Optimized for maintenance and operation efficiency

FAQs
Q: What pressure do hydrogen tube trailers operate at?
Type I hydrogen tube trailers typically operate at 20–25 MPa, depending on design and regulations.
Q: What is the difference between Type I and Type II trailers?
Type I uses steel cylinders and is more cost-effective, while Type II uses composite materials for higher capacity and lower weight.
Q: How much hydrogen can a tube trailer carry?
Steel tube trailers typically carry around 300–400 kg of hydrogen, depending on pressure and configuration.
Q: Can tube trailers be used as storage?
Yes, they can function as temporary storage and directly supply hydrogen to downstream systems.
