iTech FCS3000 – Fuel Cell Simulation Software

• *** Software only. Power supplies sold separately ***
• Auto-ranging output from 10V to 2250V
• User-defined FC polarization curve (up to 4096 points)
• Supports import of .csv files
• GUI interface, real-time display of voltage, current, and power

The FCS3000 fuel cell simulation software combined with power supplies from the IT6000B and IT6000C series (sold separately) can accurately simulate the polarization characteristic curve of a fuel cell stack. A broad array of test scenarios can be covered with the maximum voltage and power ratings of 2250 volts and 10 megawatts, respectively. The simple interface and data reporting capabilities make the FCS3000 software the ideal complement to an iTech IT6000 series power supply.

The output of an actual fuel cell stack is affected by driving conditions. When the working current changes, the output voltage of the FC stack is a three-stage curve impacted by the internal polarization reaction. During a test run, the simulation software changes the output voltage of the control system according to the polarization curve and records voltage, current, and power in real time.
