Reference project: Brandenburg Digital Public Safety Communications (BOS). Why use fuel cells rather than a diesel-powered emergency power system? Requirement Hydrogen fuel cell Diesel-powered system 72-hour autonomous operating time Continuous refuelability Special case Scalability of power 3-10 kw can be ensured with an appropriate number of hydrogen cylinders The H2 cylinders can be exchanged or refilled during operation Appropriate arrangements are necessary and possible in the event of disaster situations Durch modular cascading sehr gut auf the required power abstimmbar. High efficiency ratio at partial and full load (> 50%). can be ensured with an appropriate sized tank The diesel tank can be refilled during operation Appropriate arrangements are necessary and possible in the event of disaster situations Usually overdimensioned Consequently: bad effiency (<15%) because of the partial load 230 / 400 V AC Using integrated DC/AC converter Using integrated synchronous generators Operation security Integrated outdoor cabinet available bis RC4 RC only possible with container High availability Adaptability to sitespecific situations Intrinsic: In standby mode a FC hardly ages and hydrogen do not age. System is simple and therefore unsusceptible, low-maintenance. Modular plant design allows a high range of configurations and an easy transport. Diesel engine and fuel wear in standby mode. High availability only through increased maintenance costs and monthly load tests. Dieselgenerator ist ein großer schwerer Block, daher aufwändig transportierbar und wenig anpassungsfähig. Noise emissions 63 db(a) bei 1 m Abstand > 80 db(a) bei 7 m Abstand Quelle: Heliocentris
Customers can choose between different configurations and power ratings Gas cylinder store integrated in FC housing Gas cylinder store separate from FC housing Existing installation in RC4 Standard Recommended where RC standard is required and/or access is difficult. Very suitable for compact storage of individual cylinders. Cabinets can be mounted side by side. Recommended for installations with larger hydrogen capacity as bundles of cylinders can be accommodated more economically and compactly. Source: Heliocentris
