A fuel cell directly converts the chemical energy of hydrogen into electrical energy. It consists of a bipolar plate, which distributes the gases and collects the current, and an MEA (Membrane Electrode Assembly), made of an electrolyte membrane sandwiched between catalytic layers of the anode and cathode.
Hydrogen reaches the anode, where the catalyst separates the molecules into protons and electrons. The membrane only allows protons to pass through to the cathode. The electrons, however, cannot cross the membrane and are forced to flow through an external circuit, thereby generating electric current and heat.
At the cathode, protons, electrons, and oxygen from the air combine to produce water as the only by-product. This process enables continuous, emission-free power generation.
The INOCEL Z300-S is a fuel cell system designed for stationary applications. It provides clean and continuous energy where reliability is essential.
This system is integrated directly into our generators, offering a ready-to-use solution to produce electricity without emissions. The Z300-S is intended for a variety of applications, such as industrial sites, critical infrastructures, or any environment requiring a stable and durable power supply.
The system surrounding the stack includes the stack, air and hydrogen ducts, control elements, and intelligent software to ensure optimal performance.
The system surrounding the fuel cell, known as the stack, plays a key role in the overall performance of our product. It is a complete system that integrates a stack, an air supply, a hydrogen supply, a ducting system, and control elements. This complete system, powered by intelligent software, delivers unmatched performance to our customers.
