DILICO CURR TEMP for the baltic quickCONNECTfixture is available for both 25cm² and 50cm² cell areas and measures not only the distributed current and temperature but also the individual cell voltage and has connections for five temperature sensors for the media circuits. The licence-free software stores and visualizes the distributed currents and temperatures over the cel area and outputs a range of statistical key figures. The electronics and all connection cables are included as standard, so that the customer only need to provide a USB port. DILICO CURR TEMP for the baltic quickCONNECTfixture is a cost-effective measuring system for characterizing galvanic cells and their cell components in order to obtain maximum information from inside the cell during operation.

The CAN interface makes it possible to set up a bus system to connect several devices for measuring galvanic elements with more than 96 cells.

Positive and negative cell voltage measurement for galvanic cells DILICO cell voltage 36 reliably measures up to 36 cell voltages on each individual cell in the stack in 25 ms with a measurement accuracy of up to ± 15 mV and is suitable for all common energy converters and storage devices for cell voltages in the range from -4.5 V to + 4.5 V per cell. DILICO cell voltage detects faults and damaging operating conditions in advance due to the adjustable overvoltage and undervoltage limits, thereby reducing and avoiding failure and maintenance costs. The DILICO cell voltage 72 version is available for measuring up to 72 cells. The CAN interface makes it possible to set up a bus system to connect several devices for scanning galvanic elements with more than 72 cells.

Distributed current and temperature measurement on membranes. Measuring the current and temperature distribution along the membrane surface visualizes flooding and drying effects, gas undersupply, compression effects on the cell, thermal hot spots and other effects. The measurements are a significant advantage in visualizing aging effects on different membrane areas and in influencing homogeneous electricity production and distribution through operational management. The characterization of bipolar plates, seals and other components provides further approaches to optimizing cell performance. Their influence on the effectiveness of the cell can be evaluated very well through comparative measurements. DILICO CURR TEMP custom thus offers a valuable insight into the interior of fuel cells, electrolyzers and redox flow batteries. Use the information to optimize the operational management and characterization of your system. Depending on the membrane area, the sensor layer, number of segments and distribution of the segments can be customized according to your requirements in order to achieve optimum monitoring of the current density and temperature distribution.

Distributed current and temperature measurement on membranes with Scribner integration.
Measuring the current and temperature distribution along the membrane surface using the DILICO CURR TEMP for Scribner system enables visualization of flooding and drying effects, gas undersupply, compression-related influences, thermal hotspots and other dynamic phenomena. These measurements are particularly beneficial for analyzing aging effects across various membrane zones and for supporting homogeneous power generation and distribution through refined operational management. The system also provides effective characterization of bipolar plates, seals, and other cell components, offering additional opportunities to optimize cell performance. Their impact on overall efficiency can be reliably assessed through comparative studies. DILICO CURR TEMP for Scribner delivers valuable insight into the internal behaviour of fuel cells, electrolyzers and redox flow batteries. Leverage this information to enhance system control and component analysis. Depending on the membrane area, the sensor layer, number of segments and their distribution can be configured individually to ensure optimal resolution and monitoring of current density and temperature distribution within the cell.

Insert the membrane, start the software and start to measure The simple handling of the DILICO Hydrogen cell test system characterizes the test stand for analysing PEM electrolysis membranes.

The proven baltic quickCONNECTfixture system serves as the basis for quick membrane integration. Compressed air can be used to variably adjust the compression force on the active cell surface, which is an important parameter for the operation of electrolysis membranes. The cell can be actively preheated or cooled before and during operation in order to achieve optimum conditions for comparative measurements. The DI water supply features conductivity measurement and preheating for an optimized electrolysis process. The hydrogen and oxygen gases produced are dried, the flow rates are measured and the proportions in the respective gas flow are determined so that mechanical problems on the cell components can be visualized. Test sequences, such as the temporal recording of current and voltage characteristics and other parameters, can be programmed in the software in a script and thus enable reproducible measurements to be carried out. DILICO CURR TEMP for the distributed measurement of currents and temperatures on the membrane is included as standard for characterising the electrolytic cell. The measurement method visualizes the various effects on the current and temperature distribution across the membrane surface, such as drying, flooding, thermal hotspots, undersupply of gases, the behaviour of the contact pressure of the cell and the aging behaviour in different regions of the membrane.
