NUPI Industrie Italiane has supplied our ELAMID PA-12 polyamide piping and fittings system for the transport of H2 gas in a green hydrogen generation plant that will power the new experimental solar thermal plant project in Spain. For the H2 system conveyed with our PA-U12 pipes, 365 foot-long-coils with a diameter of 2 inch (63 mm) were supplied and joined using Elofit electrofusion fittings and Nupi electrofusion welding machines.
The ELAMID polyamide system is particularly suitable for conveying hydrogen up to 232 psi (16 bars), since it has a low permeability to H2 molecules compared to that of PE pipes and does not undergo hydrogen embrittlement like steel pipes. The systems are safer, more reliable, and virtually maintenance-free and are ideal for conveying H2 in direct-buried installations.
For over 50 years, NUPI Industrie Italiane has been supplying pipe and fitting systems for the plumbing, industrial, gas, irrigation, heating sectors and for the oil, chemical and petrochemical markets. NUPI can satisfy any installation requirement, thanks to special parts specifically made to the customer's specifications.
