How to Measure Cans/ Bladders

NOTE: This process is for customers who can't or don't have a can they can send in. If you are sending in a can or bladder this process is not necessary but is optional and can increase the speed and accuracy of their quote. 

When drawing up designs from hand drawn or other CAD drawings, we like to use a method called drawing with right angles. This kind of measuring technique helps us bypass the tedious drawing and measuring of specified angles that could be incorrectly measured. With this process we rely on right angles to measure out the length and height of a slanted edge on a can/ bladder. Below are steps for both measuring from a can or a CAD drawing.

Steps for Measuring a Can

Step 1: Find a flat surface such as the top or bottom of the can you are measuring up.
Step 2: Take a Tape Measure/ Meter Stick or Carpenters Square/Square Ruler(Picture to Right) and measure the bottom of the can.
Step 3: Proceed to measure the remaining sides of the can.
Step 4: If your can has angled sides that are not 90° to the flat bottom then use a simple Rise/Run to measure out the angled sides(if possible, do not measure the slope of the angled side as this can lead to errors in angles).
Step 5: Continue this method for any angled side of your can. This will help ensure a more accurate drawing of the can and help to streamline the building process.
Step 6: Make sure to Double check your measurements before submitting them.

​We may contact you if some measurements do not add up or if there is any confusion on the submitted drawing. We recommend you bring your Fuel Cell in or at least a mock up of what your Fuel Cell may look like.
