M-Series

For a leading Swiss sink manufacturer, the steel annealing process demands an exceptionally stable and continuous supply of high-purity hydrogen. EasyEnergy Companies & Consulting SA was engaged to design a system that could meet strict process, safety, and space requirements. Their team selected GRZ’s DASH M20 due to its proven reliability, solid-state architecture, and precisely controlled thermal management — all essential for maintaining consistent furnace conditions.

The Challenge: Guaranteeing Precision and Safety in a Demanding Environment

In steel annealing, even minor variations in hydrogen flow or temperature can affect product quality. EasyEnergy needed a hydrogen supply module capable of delivering flawless consistency in an ATEX-rated environment, while fitting into a constrained footprint and integrating seamlessly with the client’s existing furnace line.

The Solution: An Engineered System for Precision Control

GRZ’s DASH M20 served as the core of the hydrogen supply system. Its built-in Thermal Management System (TMS) ensured stable hydrogen outflow at tightly regulated temperatures—critical for achieving uniform annealing results. The module’s inherently safe, low-pressure, solid-state design enabled installation inside a safety-sensitive environment without compromising performance or compliance.

Why GRZ’s DASH M20 Was Selected

The M20 was selected after evaluating multiple storage and supply concepts. Its integrated thermal management, inherent ATEX safety compliance, and stable hydrogen outflow made it the most reliable option for a precision-critical annealing line.

The Results: Enabling a Partner’s Success

The success of this installation proves the value of solid-state hydrogen storage in processes requiring both precision and safety. With the DASH M20, EasyEnergy delivered a highly controllable hydrogen supply that maintains furnace stability and product quality—while significantly simplifying operational risk management. The project highlights how engineered thermal management unlocks reliable hydrogen delivery in sensitive industrial environments.
