LeanCat Laboratory Electrolyzer Stack

What is the LeanCat Laboratory Electrolyzer Stack?
The Laboratory Electrolyzer Stack is multi-cell test hardware for up to 5 cells at once, suitable for PEM or AEM electrolysers. It can be pressurized up to 50 bar and features a simple assembly and durable construction for repeatable, well-controlled conditions. Active area 25 cm² with Titanium Grade 1 bipolar plates and a serpentine flow field.
How is the stack configured?
Built for robust high-pressure electrolyser research:
- Up to 5 cells tested simultaneously
- PEM or AEM electrolysers
- Operating pressure up to 50 bar(g) on both H2 and O2
- Max temperature up to 180 °C
- Titanium Grade 1 bipolar plates (3 mm) with serpentine flow field
- Stainless-steel base/upper plates and current collectors
