In many fuel cell applications the blower is critical component that will need to be:
Fuel cells convert the chemical energy stored in the fuel to electric and thermal energy (heat), without the need for combustion, this is why they are a viable solution to reduce emissions and meet green energy targets. Fuel Cells provide zero emission solutions for all energy needs.
Fuel cells can be classified by the kind of electrolyte they use, therefore although the basic operations of all fuel cells are the same, there are several types of fuel cells: Polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) fuel cells—also called proton exchange membrane fuel cells, Solid Oxide Fuel Cells, Direct Methanol fuel cells, Alkaline fuel cells, Phosphoric Acid fuel cells, Molten Carbonate fuel cells and Reversible fuel cells.
Fuel cells can be used in transport applications to feed buses for city and regional transport but can also be used in hydrogen fuelled marine transportation. Other applications also include forklift trucks, wheel chairs, bikes, small vehicles and light traction. Last, but not least, Fuel Cells are used in stationary applications to generate residential and industrial energy supply.
In many fuel cell applications the blower is critical component that will need to be:
In many fuel cell applications the blower is critical component that will need to be:
Contact-free vacuum or compressed air efficiently and economically. This is possible because of the principle of internal compression in the rotary claw design. The gas is pre-compressed within the compressing chamber and is then discharged.
Ingersoll Rand businesses have expertise spanning the whole hydrogen value chain. This not only includes the blowers, compressors and vacuum pumps above. It also includes industrial gas specialists Reavell, hydrogen compressing in PVC Production from WITTIG, liquid ring compressors for hydrogen recover from Nash and hydrogen refuelling stations from Haskel.
Ingersoll Rand is commitment to developing hydrogen technologies that support more sustainable, flexible, and affordable hydrogen solutions.
