Description
Disassemble and reassemble your own direct methanol fuel cell (DMFC) stack of individually connected cells with the DMFC Flex-Stak. The DMFC Flex-Stak comes in a 1, 5, 10, and 20 cell stack configuration. Ease of use makes it simple to scale the Flex-Stak to different power levels and integrate equipment such as sensors. The Flex-Stak fuel cell is an excellent learning tool that provides hands-on experience with promising direct methanol fuel cell technology. The DMFC Flex-Stak with single cell and multi-cell configuration provides an ideal platform for students to learn how to build short-stack and full-stack concepts and various other practical applications such as professional training for users new to direct methanol fuel cell technology.
The Flex-Stak is a fully assembled, tested, and ready-to-use direct methanol fuel cell! Only a flathead screwdriver and torque wrench are needed to assemble the Flex-Stak so you can focus on building your own methanol-fueled applications.
The DMFC Flex-Stak is a detachable methanol fuel cell that allows the user to input their own custom DMFC MEAs for testing.
Stack contents include:
✔ Plastic end plates
✔ Composite graphite bipolar/monopolar plates
✔ High performance DMFC MEAs
✔ Expandable design
✔ Hardware
