Introducing our Next Gen P2K: P2KHF. It's advanced LH2 pumping technology is designed to bring reliability, efficiency, and affordability into a demanding market.
Overview
of P2KHF
Our P2KHF is a high-flow vertical reciprocating pump handling LH2 with 99% efficiency, reducing boil-off in LH2 refueling stations or operating as an sLH2 fuel pump.
// High boil-off rates have long been a challenge for hydrogen fueling station operators and the P2KHF uniquely positions itself as the solution to customer pain points with its capability to retrofit into existing Nikkiso stations, while serving as the foundation for next-generation H70 and subcooled liquid hydrogen fuel infrastructure. //

Features and
benefits
The P2KHF has the capability of saving customers $150,000 per year in hydrogen service.
Our reciprocating pump technology has demonstrated its success in pressurizing and transferring LH2 with minimal heat input, reducing fluid temperature rise and cutting down boil-off gas. Coupled with a submerged cold end that’s enclosed in a vacuum-insulated sump to further reduce heat in-leak, we’ve created a system capable of achieving a liquid hydrogen mass flow efficiency upwards of 99%.
By ensuring retrofit compatibility with existing sump-mounted boost pumps, we create an upgrade opportunity for existing Nikkiso fuel stations that can pay for itself in less than 2 years.
Up to 55% reduction in cooldown time
Improved isentropic efficiency adds an extra 3°F of subcooling
A constantly submerged cold end results in reduced thermal cycling
Vertical reciprocating design minimizes vibration and uneven wear
Compact footprint simplifies integration into fueling stations and skids
Retrofittable to sump-mounted TC34.2 systems
