The electrolyzer technology is one of the most promising clean technologies for creating hydrogen and oxygen gases from the water electrolysis reaction. It is an excellent educational tool for teaching students at all levels (whether K-12, pre-college, college or vocational schools, or university) or for hobbyists to learn how to scale up the electrolysis concept for increased output. Stacking more electrolyzer cells in the design will vividly demonstrate to students or hobbyists how larger hydrogen and oxygen gas generation can be achieved from an engineering perspective. Please see the technical specs for hydrogen and\/or oxygen gas production levels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis electrolyzer product is maintenance-free. However, always remember to use fresh, distilled water each time and drain the water from the storage tanks after use. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStandard Hydrogen Production Rate: 46 cm\u003csup\u003e3\u003c\/sup\u003e\/min (with room temperature deionized or distilled water)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum Hydrogen Production Rate: 50 cm\u003csup\u003e3\u003c\/sup\u003e\/min (with warmed water around 42-45 deg.

Electrolyzers generate the hydrogen required by fuel cells from deionized water (or distilled water) in an environmentally conscious manner. The electrical energy required for this purpose can be gained from renewable sources such as solar cells, wind farms, or hydroelectric plants.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWater reacts in the electrolyzer under the influence of electrical energy according to the following formula: 2H\u003csub\u003e2\u003c\/sub\u003eO = 2H\u003csub\u003e2\u003c\/sub\u003e+ O\u003csub\u003e2\u003c\/sub\u003e. This process takes place in the MEA (membrane electrode assembly). The MEA consists of a cathode, an anode, and a special polymer membrane (PEM) coated with catalysts, which is permeable to protons but which presents a barrier to electrons. H-TEC Quattro electrolyzers functions on the PEM (proton exchange membrane) principle. The gases produced can be collected in storage tanks (such as H-TEC Storage 30orH-TEC Storage 80). The energy stored in chemical form in the gases can be converted back to electrical energy in a fuel cell as and when required.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"H-TEC Education","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51303719764191,"sku":"12120022","price":154.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0825\/9544\/7007\/files\/QUATTROEZ_Front.png?v=1790886918","url":"https:\/\/h-tec-education.com\/products\/quattro-electrolyzer-htec-e105","provider":"H-TEC Education","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
