Nel S Series Hydrogen Generators for balloon lift gas
In the meteorology field, remote locations are often used for balloon soundings, leading to a number of important issues including logistical difficulties associated with delivered gas, safety issues related to high pressure cylinders, and cost associated with delivered gas. Unreliable gas deliveries result in reduced number of soundings and missed atmospheric data. Nel’s S Series Hydrogen Generators utilize advanced Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) technology to address your hydrogen needs with high performance, reliable and cost-effective solutions.
The S Series Hydrogen Generator features a compact design with a small footprint. The PEM technology eliminates the need for caustic material handling required by other hydrogen generators. Our advanced differential pressure design prevents oxygen from entering the hydrogen stream enhancing the system’s safety. As the hydrogen is generated on-demand, hydrogen storage and hazardous gas handling is minimized.
The preferred higher pressure solution, the S Series is fully automatic with remote monitoring and has minimal installation requirements. The generator is cost effective, with a lower capital investment compared to alternate technologies and minimal annual maintenance requirements. With a reliable 99%+ uptime and start and stop cycling without stack degradation, the unit will provide an uninterrupted hydrogen supply.
