  • Patent number: 11815081
    Abstract: A method of controlling the injection of hydraulic fluid into a high pressure diaphragm compressor having a hydraulic system, the method including: measuring a representation of pressure in a high-pressure part of the hydraulic system of the diaphragm compressor, and maintaining a desired pressure in the high-pressure part of the hydraulic system by adding hydraulic fluid to the high-pressure part of the hydraulic system under the control of a controller on the basis of the measuring of pressure.

  • Publication number: 20230250815
    Abstract: A diaphragm compressor having a compressor head with a hydraulic fluid plate having a fluid plate contact plane and a process fluid plate having a process plate contact plane, the plates forming a compression chamber when contact therebetween is established, the compression chamber being divided in an upper chamber and a lower chamber by a multi-layered diaphragm where a controller is configured for controlling an alternating movement of the multi-layered diaphragm towards the upper and the lower chambers respectively, a process fluid plate seal is positioned in a process fluid seal groove provided in the contact plane, the process fluid plate seal forms a process fluid seal between an upper side of the multi-layered diaphragm and the contact plane, and the process fluid plate includes a process fluid leak groove system fluidly connected to a process fluid plate leakage passage provided in the process fluid plate.

  • Patent number: 11708827
    Abstract: A high-pressure compressor having a hydraulic system and a gas chamber, where the hydraulic system includes a reservoir, connected to a hydraulic fluid chamber by a hydraulic flow path and a pump assembly positioned in the hydraulic flow path, and the compressor furthermore includes a control element controlling the flow of hydraulic fluid in the hydraulic flow path and thereby the pressure in the hydraulic fluid chamber, where the control element and the pump assembly is configured for controlling the pressure of hydraulic fluid in the hydraulic fluid chamber when the compressor is not in operation.

  • Patent number: 11105467
    Abstract: The invention related to a system for control of a hydrogen refueling station. The control of the hydrogen refueling station is optimized according to a high frequency tank profile in a time period between time A and time B. The high frequency tank profile includes selecting a first of the plurality of vessels as supply to the compressor during at least part of the refueling of the vehicle tank, the selection is based on pressure of hydrogen gas in one or more vessels of the supply storage. The control of the hydrogen refueling station is furthermore optimized according to a low frequency tank profile in a time period between time C and time D. The low frequency tank profile includes preparing one or more hydrogen refueling station components to enable a plurality of vehicle tank refuelings in the subsequent time period between time A and time B.

  • Publication number: 20210148353
    Abstract: A pressure sensor having a housing connected to a compressor head, the housing including a piston movably mounted in a cylinder, the cylinder is fluidly connected to a high-pressure part of a hydraulic system of the compressor, where the piston is adapted to be moved in a first direction away from the compressor head by the pressure of the hydraulic fluid in the high-pressure part, thereby moving a displacement member which is movably attached to the housing by one or more flexible suspensions, and the piston is adapted to be moved in a second direction towards the compressor head by the flexible suspension via the displacement member.
