Abstract
A fuel supply manifold assembly () comprising a manifold (), one or more supply inlet connections (), pressure readers (), a manual turnoff (), pressure-reducing devices (), a pressure-relieving device (), a flow-control device (), and a delivery outlet port (). The manifold () defines a flow path from the supply inlet connection(s) () to the delivery outlet port (). The flow path passes through the pressure readers (), the manual turnoff (), pressure-reducing devices (), the pressure-relieving device (), the flow-control device (). When installing the fuel supply manifold assembly () at a fuel cell site, one inlet connection for each fuel source and one outlet connection is required. No separate connections, tubing, hoses, or other plumbing is required to integrate other the components into the fuel flow path to the anode side of the fuel cell stack.
