Requirement

Public Works and Government Services Canada (PWGSC) on behalf of National Research Council) will negotiate with Greenlight Innovation Corp., Burnaby BC for the supply, delivery and commissioning of ONE(1) only, fully automated PEM Fuel Cell Test Station (Model G20)

Sole Source Justification

The Fuel Cell Test Station will be used to evaluate the electrochemical performances during characterization, under H2/Air or H2/O2, of Membrane Electrodes Assemblies using different types of membranes and proton conductive ionomers. This new fuel cell test station allows NRC to characterize fuel cell up to 20 cm2 with a specific cell design that NRC already use. Therefore, it is important that the new equipment has to use the same test cells in terms of size, numbers and types of sensors/connectors. In addition, the new test station must be compatible with NRC’s existing Chemical and Mechanical durability test stations from Greenlight Innovation.

The Greenlight PEM Fuel Cell Test Station is the only test station that has the following required features. - Ability of users to program the test station for unattended 24/7 dynamic operation (users can make durability profiles, or to replicate real-world driving / power cycle data to scripts); - Test station can be remotely controlled and can email/text messages to operators to notify for problems for increased safety; - Monitor and PC within the test station; - Data output from test station in the format of .csv files (plain-text file format) which can be easily analyzed using MS Excel; - Automatic N2 purge on shutdown with optional controlled pressure decay; - Small workspace for the test - approximately 710 mm X 480 mm (28? x 19?); and - Includes a cell voltage monitoring system with an accuracy of +/-1mV. - Excellent pressure control at low flow rates (±2kPa steady state) - Ability to provide highly accurate inlet gas temperature control of ±1°C during steady state operation - Humidifier by-pass and wet/dry mixing
