H2 201: Hydrogen Fuel System Inspector Training

Gaseous fuels, such as hydrogen, have properties that require the fuel systems used to be rigorously inspected at specific intervals.  Inspections are a preventative measure that can help prevent dangerous situations and protect vehicle operators.  Inspection of the fuel system in a hydrogen vehicle is essential and an industry best practice.

This course addresses the unique components of a hydrogen fuel system, the standards used to guide inspections, proper inspection techniques, and other necessary safety measures for working with hydrogen vehicles.

Ultimately, it is designed to help ensure technicians are adequately trained to properly conduct hydrogen fuel system inspections according to all the current standards and guidelines.
