5 Test methods
5.1 Sampling and judgment
5.1.1 Liquid hydrogen is sampled in the liquid phase, and after being completely vaporized by the sampling tube, it is sampled by the sampling cylinder or directly sent to the measuring instrument through the sampling tube. The sampling shall meet the requirements of GB/T 6681.
5.1.2 For pipeline transported liquid hydrogen with stable production, the sampling frequency shall be determined by the supplier and the purchaser. The pipeline transported liquid hydrogen products shall meet the technical requirements of this standard.
5.1.3 The liquid hydrogen filled in tank cars or storage tanks shall be inspected by tank upon completion of filling. If any index among the test results fails to meet the technical requirements in Table 1, this batch of products will be judged as rejected.
5.1.4 The sampling safety shall meet the relevant requirements of GB/T 3723.
