Anode water separator incl. purge and drain valve - Hengst

  • Correct water management is a key component in preventing liquid water deposits and thus ensuring the effective operation of the PEM fuel cell.
  • In this context, Hengst offers a new type of separator module for anode gas recirculation, which combines the function of droplet water separation and gas drainage with innovative valve technology.
  • Integrative approaches in particular are our strength. Hengst Filtration is the right partner for the development of integrative module solutions for Water separator, recirculation and media distribution at the fuel cell.

Why do you need to get the water and nitrogen out of the system?

  • Purge valve: avoid water accumulation to protect the fuel cell from flooding and starving 
  • Drain valve: Nitrogen crossover from cathode to anode leads to high inert gas concentration -> anode gas loop needs to be purged to knock out N2

Key features

  • Highly efficient water separator for the anode side / hydrogen path of the fuel cell.
  • Suitable for fuel cells up until 150kW and beyond 
  • High function integration: integration of purge and drain valve in the system
  • Including multi-level water sensor for detection of the separated water from the stream
  • Material compatibility with anode loop gas mixture
