Druck and University of Bath to Develop Flight-Certified Cryogenic Hydrogen Sensors for Aviation
Druck and the University of Bath are collaborating to develop the first flight-certified cryogenic hydrogen pressure sensor for hydrogen-powered aircraft. Funded by a UK Government Knowledge Transfer Partnership, the project will utilize the University’s IAAPS facility for advanced materials testing and compliance with aerospace standards. The sensors aim to detect leaks and improve system efficiency in liquid hydrogen systems, addressing the limitations of current industrial sensors. Druck operates 500,000 sensors across various aerospace applications.

Druck and the University of Bath are set to develop the first flight-certified cryogenic hydrogen pressure sensor for hydrogen-powered aircraft, addressing the limitations of existing industrial sensors that lack flight certification. Funded by a UK Government Knowledge Transfer Partnership, this project will leverage the University’s Institute for Advanced Automotive Propulsion Systems (IAAPS) for advanced materials testing and compliance with aerospace standards.
The sensors will enhance safety and efficiency in hydrogen storage and conveyance systems. Druck has 500,000 sensors currently in use across the aerospace sector.
