AMC 31HB.45(d)(5) Fuel cells

ED Decision 2009/005/R

The fuel cell data plate should include the following information:

-           the manufacturers name or mark;

-           the type design approval number (if applicable);

-           the manufacturers serial number;

-           the UN number and the proper name of the gas or mixture of gases (e.g. UN1978 Propane); and

-           the maximum filling of the receptacle with the fittings and accessories as fitted at the time of filling.

Note: The data plate should include, where applicable, information to allow safe filling by commercial facilities (e.g. filling by weight). Where a fuel cell has been designed to a standard which is not compatible with comparable industrial standards, the data plate should include the statement “For use in Hot Air Balloons only”.
