Here are some rules for storing hydrogen cylinders in India:
Location: Store cylinders in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place under cover, away from heat sources, and in an isolated area.
Storage shed: The storage shed should be made of fire-resistant materials. It should also have a roof to protect from direct sunlight.
Separation: Store cylinders separately based on their contents, such as hydrogen, oxygen, and flammable gases. Incompatible cylinders should be kept at least 3 meters apart.
Inventory: Keep an up-to-date inventory of the cylinders.
Valves: Ensure all valve openings are tightly shut.
Thin-walled cylinders: Do not stack thin-walled cylinders horizontally.
Combustible materials: Do not store cylinders with combustible materials.
Exit routes: Do not store cylinders in exits or egress routes.
Distance from flammable materials: Keep the area within 20 feet of a hydrogen container away from flammable materials and oxidizing gases
