RUNNING PROCEDURE
After system has started, depending on your setup and application you can change your load to get
the power you need within the specified power range for this fuel cell.
Don't connect up a load that will demand power more than 100W which can permanently damage
the fuel cell.
During the operation, monitor the Hydrogen flow and pressure to consistently supply hydrogen at
0.45-0.55Bar.
Monitor the voltage of the external power is 12-14V.
Direct the outlet tubing of the purge valve away the fuel cell. Do not let the purged hydrogen go
back towards the fuel cell stack, it will damage the fuel cell.
Pay attention to the purge, take care of the performance during the purge, If after each purge, the
performance is increased about 10%, it means you need to increase the pressure of hydrogen a
small amount. The fuel cell is flooding and so you need to use the pressure to push extra water out.
● Short circuit will happen every 10 seconds and last for 100ms everytime.
● If the load does not operate well with the short circuit on we recommend that you run the
fuel cell for 10 minutes prior to switching the load on.
● There will be a slight decrease in the power provided to the load with the short circuit off.
Make sure the orientation of the fuel cell is kept the same during operation as shown on the fuel
cell stack with the sticker "This side up".
Do not move the fuel cell around or shake vigorously during operation.
If the system shuts down during running procedure, review the Bleeping interpretation during
running procedure.
