Description

The RE14 Advanced Fuel Cell Technology system provides students with a self-contained modular system, covering current fuel cell technology on a laboratory scale.

Using the system students can undertake experiments covering working principles, efficiency, and characteristics curves of electrolysers and fuel cells. In addition to a PEM-fuel cell, it also contains an ethanol-fuel cell to compare the different technologies.

Including three PEM-fuel cells the kit enables students to build fuel cell stacks. H2Charger and H2Storage are provided with the system to allow for the easy generation and storage of hydrogen.
