The EDC Container HSC is a self-contained refuelling system designed for hydrogen vehicles. It is housed in a 20-foot container divided into an Ex (explosion-protected) and NonEx (non-explosion-protected) section. The system includes a compressor station, high-pressure storage tanks, and a dispenser unit (HSF) for vehicle refuelling. It supports both 350bar and 700bar vehicles and can be modularly extended with additional components like supply connections, compressors, and cooling systems. The system is fully automated, with safety ensured by a failsafe PLC, and is suitable for use in various locations after installation and approval.

Use Cases

  • Refuelling hydrogen vehicles at 700 bar.
  • Refuelling hydrogen vehicles at 350 bar or other pressures through configuration and software adaptation.
  • Refuelling vehicle tanks ≤10 kg according to SAE J2601.
  • Refuelling larger hydrogen vehicles (buses, trucks, trains) according to manufacturer specifications.

Capabilities

  • Provides containerized hydrogen refuelling infrastructure combining compressor, buffer storage, and dispenser.
  • Supports hydrogen supply pressure up to 300 bar with buffer storage vessels rated up to 500 bar.
  • Enables vehicle refuelling up to 700 bar through integrated HydrogenSmartFueller dispenser.
  • HSF control system allows modular extension with supply connections, compressors, storage tanks, or cooling systems.
  • Safety-critical functions executed via failsafe PLC control system.
  • Allows remote maintenance and system access via integrated router and RFID authentication.
EDC-Anlagentechnik GmbH EDC-Anlagentechnik GmbH, based in Tulln an der Donau, Austria (name standing for Engineering, Development and Commissioning), developed the first hydrogen refueling system in the German-speaking region, successfully commissioned in 2009, and has since implemented over 90 hydrogen filling stations across Europe, Asia, and the USA. The company's Hydrogen Smart Fueller (HSF) and Hydrogen Smart Container (HSC) turnkey solutions provide complete hydrogen refueling infrastructure — the HSC packs a dispensing unit, mid-pressure H2 buffer (storing over 1,000 liters at 45 MPa/450 bar), compressors, instrument air, and electrical cabinet into a portable, durable 20-foot container configurable for 35 MPa (350 bar) or 70 MPa (700 bar) fueling. EDC's versatile MUHF connection and control system accommodates various vehicle refueling needs with integrated heat exchangers and flexible compressor pairing options, and the company was a proud contributor to Bulgaria's first hydrogen charging station as part of the HITMOBIL Centre of Competence. Through close cooperation with Schmidberger Elektroinstallations GmbH, EDC-Anlagentechnik offers complete planning and automation of hydrogen refueling systems from power generation to the fueling nozzle, positioning itself as an established European specialist in customized, small-series hydrogen fueling solutions.
