PD ISO/TR 15916:2015

This standard PD ISO/TR 15916:2015 Basic considerations for the safety of hydrogen systems is classified in these ICS categories:

• 71.020 Production in the chemical industry
• 71.100.20 Gases for industrial application

This Technical Report provides guidelines for the use of hydrogen in its gaseous and liquid forms as well as its storage in either of these or other forms (hydrides). It identifies the basic safety concerns, hazards and risks, and describes the properties of hydrogen that are relevant to safety. Detailed safety requirements associated with specific hydrogen applications are treated in separate International Standards.

"Hydrogen"in this paper means normal hydrogen ( ¹H ₂), not deuterium ( ²H ₂) or tritium ( ³H ₂).
