TSFC-1001 PEM Fuel Cell Test Station

A high-power test station for controlled PEM fuel-cell research, characterisation and industrial prototyping.

Overview

Control the conditions. Understand the cell.

The TSFC-1001 brings hydrogen and oxygen/air flow, gas humidity, back pressure and stack temperature into a single automated test environment.

PLC-based operation, integrated safety responses and a low-resistance electronic load support repeatable DC studies; electrochemical impedance spectroscopy is available as an option.
