    The National Research Council Canada (NRC) has a requirement for the supply and delivery two alkaline exchange membrane water electrolysis (AEMWE) test station.

    NRC wants to expand our electrolysis testing capability to cover both high power and lower power AEM testing in wide range conditions. In order to reach this goal, a 3-cell 3 kW AEMWE test station (for large power) and a 1-cell 500 W (for lower power) AEMWE test station are requested to evaluate the performance and durability of AEMWE under different test conditions.

    Quantity: One (1) - Station A: AEMWE test station that uses 3-cell stack, 100 cm2 active area per cell. The test station will have many features including two electrolyte reservoirs with nitrogen gas blanketing, up to 30 psi of back pressure, an integrated potentiostat with EIS capability, DC power supply and temperature control.

    Quantity: One (1) - Station B: AEMWE test station that can used with both 5 cm2 and 25 cm2 active area single-cells (1-cell). The test station will have many features including two electrolyte reservoirs, up to 30 psi of back pressure, an integrated potentiostat with EIS capability, DC power supply and temperature control.
