We are proud to be involved in this great new project to deliver green refuelling capability at Mira’s world class facility in Nuneaton. Maximator’s contribution is MAX Compression, our Hydrogen compression technology, and MAX RECAB, a manifold system to allow connection to storage systems. Read more about the project on MIRA’s website, and watch their exciting video below.
Last week saw this containerised test system leaving Maximator UK for its new home. This system is a fully automatic cyclic test system for testing up to three high pressure vessels with high pressure air at up to 450 Bar. It can also cool down to -50°C and heat up to +80°C.
While it looks like an unassuming blue sea container, its contents are pretty high-tech” said Maximator UK Sales Manager Peter Watts. “You can program in test profiles, load and save them, and the system produces and logs data for analysis”.
Maximator’s Jon Butler added “This was a real technical challenge for us, and -50 is not easy to achieve, but the work has been worthwhile. This is a real achievement for the Maximator UK team”.

Spending time at each of Maximator’s three factories in the town, they were able to meet up with colleagues for the first time since the beginning of 2020!
“Maximator has undergone an intensive program of development and now has a leading position in hydrogen technologies” said Jon Butler. “There is a lot to learn, but it is clear we have a very comprehensive offering for refilling vehicles and storage facilities with hydrogen across the range”.
Technical Chief Craig McAfee added “This really is an impressive organisation focused on Hydrogen compression. Within the next few quarters, we will have capacity to build more than 100 refuelling stations per year, with an integrated first line support team monitoring telemetry from every station.”

Hydrogen as the new and clean energy carrier of the future is becoming increasingly important. Especially technical solutions for compression and storage, but also for testing and for the qualification of products with high pressure.
As a specialist for compression of gases, our products have been successfully used for hydrogen applications for decades. With our new special brochure, we are presenting all products from our Components division that are particularly suitable for hydrogen service in one catalog for the first time.
In addition to the gas compressors of the DLE series, valves, fittings and tubing of the Medium Pressure series, we also present our newly developed, air operated hydrogen valves in detail. Another highlight are our new fittings with variable connections – this allows users to reduce the required number of components and connection points.
The catalog is available for download here:

Our new catalog gas booster and air amplifier is here – for the first time including extensive information on the selection and use of the products.
The catalog now enables application-oriented product selection, which has been significantly simplified by the new design and the revised classification of the product groups. In terms of content, the catalog is presented with the latest application information. It offers a detailed selection guide and also includes the portfolio of air amplifier stations.
