New Members of FITOK EC-79 Certified Products
Adding to EC-79 certified 6D series and 20D series tube fittings, FITOK BU series ball valves, FT series filters and CH series check valves obtained EC-79 declaration of conformity issued by third party.
EC-79 approval and certification is part of the EU regulatory requirements and is a mandatory directive for components and systems installed on hydrogen vehicles. Up to now, the regulation still has a strong influence, and users such as hydrogen vehicle manufacturers continue to use EC79/2009 to approve components for their hydrogen applications.
FITOK conducted a series of rigorous type tests according to Regulation (EU) No 406/2010 to verify compliance with Regulation (EC) No. 79/2009 of the European Parliament and the Council. The test procedures and requirements met the requirements for comprehensive system safety, including hydrogen compatibility test, aging test, ozone compatibility test, corrosion resistance test, endurance test, hydrostatic cycling test, and external leakage test.
EC-79 certified FITOK 6D series tube fittings, BU series ball valves, FT series filters, and CH series check valves are applicable to hydrogen systems (e.g., trucks and other logistics vehicles) up to 35 MPa; EC-79 certified FITOK 20D series tube fittings are applicable to hydrogen systems (e.g., passenger cars) up to 70 MPa.
To order EC-79 certified products, add EC79 suffix to the standard product ordering number. For example: SS-CM-FL4-NS4-EC79.
