Fuel Cell Equipment & Services

Fuel Cell Test Station and Fuel Cell for Masdar Institute of Science & Technology »

SERC engineers delivered a custom-built hydrogen fuel cell test station and one proton exchange membrane fuel cell to Masdar Institute of Science & Technology in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates.

Fuel Cell Test Station and Fuel Cells for Auburn University »

In 2006, SERC engineers delivered a custom hydrogen fuel cell test station and two proton exchange membrane fuel cells to Professor Ben Choi at Auburn University in Auburn, Alabama. This installation included a state-of- the-art external humidification system for the stack supply air.

Fuel Cell Test Station for Kettering University »

Following on the heels of the successful test station built for the University of Michigan, SERC teamed with Kettering University to build the school a test stand consisting of four test stations, which can all be operated simultaneously under the control of a single computer and data acquisition system.

Fuel Cell Test Station for the University of Michigan »

SERC has designed and built fuel cell test stations for in-house use for many years. This was our first fuel cell test station made to order for a client. The University of Michigan's mechanical engineering department now uses the test station and a SERC fuel cell to develop control and diagnostic systems for vehicular fuel cell power.

Educational Equipment »

SERC’s education program includes fuel cell equipment and interpretation. We have designed and built a complete fuel cell power system for educational demonstrations and single-cell fuel cell kits for hands-on laboratories. We also design interpretive signs and brochures to educate the public about renewable energy in general and specifications for individual systems.
