Q: What is EDUSTAK JUNIOR?
Q: What is EDUSTAK JUNIOR?
A:
EDUSTAK JUNIOR is designed by Horizon Fuel Cell Technologies for the stringent demand of fuel cell scientists and
professionals.
Built for long life performance and scalability, they fit the needs for those who want to:
- do advanced research on MEAs
investigate thermal effects in stacks
- investigate thermal effects in stacks
- perform professional training
- integrate fuel cell systems
- quick start a fuel cell lab
EDUSTAK JUNIOR is fully modular from one to ten cells or more as required. Scale down or up can be achieved in lab
environment by the user with simple tools.
Made of thick (8mm) plastic separators, the stack can be heavily equipped with sensors to investigate MEAs behavior.
Q: How does EDUSTAK JUNIOR work?
A:
After the stack has been assembled, and leakage checking has been done, connect the hydrogen supply, purging

valve and load, etc. Make everything is ready for operation.
Supply hydrogen to the stack. The fuel cell starts heating and produce electricity. The current flows into the circuit board
through the electrode and then output by negative and positive polarity.
Purging must be done manually every 3 minutes during operation for good performance.
Q: What are the key features?
A:
The key feature are listed below:
- Stack can be taken apart and rebuilt to change single cells or insert sensors.

- Stack power can easily be scaled by adding/removing cells.
- Optimal thermal management with air cooling circulation in each plate.
- Stack is delivered with complete instruction guide.
