Containerized PEM Hydrogen Generators: 246 to 492 Nm³/h

In situations where plant space is at a premium, customers may want to site their electrolysers outside. At other times customers may want to configure an electrolyser for a more turnkey operation. To satisfy those needs, we suggest containerization. The M Series MC250 and MC500 units are delivered and sited in free standing containers for maximum flexibility.

Containerized M Series electrolysers can produce up to 492 Nm3/h of hydrogen gas at 99.9995% purity on-demand. Typical applications include renewable energy storage, industrial process gas, and hydrogen fueling.

Features

  • Pure hydrogen at process pressure – up to 30 barg (435 psig) hydrogen and 99.9995% purity
  • Economical hydrogen supply – tracks electric costs
  • Increased safety – no caustic chemicals
  • Virtually zero stored hydrogen – eliminates the risk of flooding the space
  • Large capacity at minimum footprint – fraction of space needed compared to large volume gas or liquid hydrogen storage
  • Reliable supply of hydrogen – field-proven reliability
  • Containerized design – flexible plant configurations
  • Automated – safe, unattended operation
