Scope

GB/T 36288-2018 is the English-translated version of 燃料电池电动汽车 燃料电池堆安全要求.

GB/T 36288-2018 sets the safety requirements for the fuel cell stack of fuel cell electric vehicles, covering hydrogen safety, electrical safety and mechanical structure.

It applies to proton exchange membrane stacks for vehicles and deals only with hazards to people and to the outside of the stack, not with protection of its interior.

The requirements cover mechanical shock, airtightness checked by the pressure drop method, insulation of the positive and negative electrodes with coolant filled, protection of persons against electric shock and a grounding point when the output voltage exceeds 60 V. Matching test methods describe the shock test along the X, Y and Z axes, the airtightness test with a helium-nitrogen mixture and the electrical checks, plus warning marks and the product manual. It was issued on 7 June 2018 and has applied since 1 January 2019.

1 Scope

This Standard specifies the safety requirements for fuel cell stack for fuel cell electric vehicles in terms of hydrogen safety, electrical safety, and mechanical structure, etc.

This Standard applies to the proton exchange membrane fuel cell stack for vehicles. This Standard only deals with hazards to the outside of the human body and fuel cell stacks, and does not involve protection of the interior of the fuel cell stack, assuming that such internal damage does not pose a hazard to the outside of the fuel cell.

3 Terms and definitions

What defined in GB/T 24548 and GB/T 28816 and the following terms and definitions are applicable to this document.

3.1 Fuel cell stack for vehicle

5 Requirements

5.2 Safety requirement of airtightness

USE pressure drop method to test the airtightness of fuel cell stack. The result shall not be lower than 85% of the initial pressure.

5.3 Electrical safety requirements

5.3.1 Requirement of insulation property

When the fuel cell stack is filled with coolant and the coolant is in a cold cycle state, the ground insulation of positive and negative electrodes shall not be lower than 100 ohm/V.

5.3.2 Requirement for protection of persons against electric shock

The requirement for protection of persons against electric shock of fuel cell stack shall comply with the relevant provisions of GB/T 18384.3.

5.3.3 Requirement of ground protection

When the output voltage of fuel cell stack is higher than 60 V, the fuel cell stack needs to have a grounding point. The resistance between the grounding point and all bare metals shall be less than 0.1 ohm.

6 Test methods

6.1 Mechanical shock

After the fuel cell stack is installed and fixed, in 3 axial directions. X direction, Y direction, and Z direction, PERFORM shock test with a shock acceleration of 5.0 g. The mechanical shock pulse is a half sinusoidal waveform and lasts for 15 ms, once in each direction.

Note: The X direction is the vehicle's heading direction. The Y direction is the lateral direction. The Z direction is the vertical direction.

6.2 Airtightness

The fuel cell stack is in a cold state. CLOSE the hydrogen exhaust port, air exhaust port, and coolant outlet of the fuel cell stack; and at the same time, ADD helium-nitrogen mixed gas to the hydrogen flow channel, air flow channel, and coolant flow channel. The helium concentration shall not be less than 10%.

The pressure shall be set at the normal working pressure (gauge pressure).

After the pressure is stabilized, the inlet valve is closed; and the pressure is maintained for 20 min. […]
