MEYER CD designs, qualifies, and manufactures ultra-lightweight composite overwrapped pressure vessels (COPVs) and HDRX-series high-pressure regulators for the most weight-critical applications in aerospace and unmanned systems. The HDRX cylinder family covers volumes from 0.5 L to 350 L at working pressures up to 700 bar — Type IV PET-lined construction with carbon-fibre overwrap, qualified to ISO 11119-3, EN 12245, TPED 2010/35/EU, and PED 2014/68/EU as appropriate to each application.
Our cylinders are flying today on hydrogen fuel-cell drones, CubeSat cold-gas thrusters, and orbital launch vehicles. Compared with all-metal cylinders, MEYER COPVs are up to 70% lighter; compared with Type 3 aluminium-lined alternatives they are up to 45% lighter — savings that translate directly into flight time, payload capacity, and orbital payload mass. The HDRX-R450 high-pressure regulator complements the cylinder line for fuel-cell and propulsion integration with hydrogen-embrittlement-resistant 316 SS construction and configurable single- or two-stage regulation.
