SOC Stack Testing – Evaluator-HT

  • Our test bench solutions for SOFC stacks and hot box systems are designed to support you in the analysis, optimization, and validation of complete high-temperature fuel cell stacks and hot box modules. With our systems, you can test power outputs of up to 50 kW and operate at temperatures of up to 1,100 °C, creating a test environment that closely replicates real-world operating conditions.
  • Our fully automated test benches feature integrated gas and air preheating, flexible electrical and thermal load control, and precise backpressure regulation. The ability to simulate different fuel and gas scenarios gives you maximum flexibility for your development and validation processes.
  • Our goal is to help you further develop your SOFC stacks and hot box systems efficiently, reliably, and under realistic conditions. Together, we build the foundation for the next generation of high-performance solid oxide fuel cell technologies.
  • All systems are designed for both fuel cell and electrolysis operation.
