Fuel Cell Test Station PTS-500
Key features
- Suitable for low-temperature PEM fuel cells
- Convenient testing of short or full stacks
- Automatic control of flow rate, humidity, temperature and back pressure individually for anode and cathode lines
- Variety of water-cooled or regenerative electronic loads available
- Stack temperature control with liquid cooling circuit
- Robust system based on industrial PLC with data logging into SQL database
- Safety features for fully automated operation
- CE certificate of conformity
Applications
Ideally suited for verification of stack design on short-stack level or scale up to full-stack level. Well-defined and repeatable conditions of Leancat PTS-500 enable benchmarking of fuel cells also thanks to extensive scripting possibilities.
