Innovative Air Cooled Fuel Cell Power Systems for MHE

智能能源、空气产品公司和罗曼磁带英国公司正在共同努力，在英国的仓库环境中演示物料搬运设备（MHE）车队。智能能源燃料电池技术的开发是为了满足永恒力和欧盟立法规定的MHE要求，同时正在进行进一步的系统工作，以确保该应用的设计工作也可以转移到其他市场。空气产品公司将利用为美国市场开发室内加氢器的经验，在英国的一个仓库设计、建造和安装一个移动式氢气加氢器。空气产品公司将负责燃料和氢气储存的安全案例。Lohmann Tapes UK是一家现有的燃料电池组件供应商，将提供能够降低成本和大规模生产燃料电池的组件，以帮助市场开发。虽然没有直接参与该项目，但永恒力正在支持将其MHE车辆转换为使用燃料电池的商业案例，并提供工厂验收测试设施，以及与客户的接触，以实现客户试验。客户试验将在三辆永恒力ECE 225车辆上进行至少一周的时间。然而，燃料电池系统被设计成适合标准尺寸的电池盒，对车辆的安装需要进行最小的调整，从而有可能将现有车队转换为早期的商业部署。

Intelligent Energy, Air Products and Lohmann Tapes UK are working together to enable the demonstration of a Materials Handling Equipment (MHE) fleet in a warehouse environment in the UK.Intelligent Energy fuel cell technology is to be developed to meet the MHE requirements set out by Jungheinrich and EU legislation with further systems work being undertaken to ensure that design work for this application can also be transferred to other markets.Air Products are to use the experience gained developing indoor refuellers for the US market to design, build and install a mobile H2 refueller at a warehouse location in the UK. Air products will be in charge of the safety case for the refuel and H2 storage.Lohmann Tapes UK is an existing Fuel Cell Component supplier and will provide components enabling the cost down and mass manufacture of fuel cell in order to aid market exploitation.Although not directly involved in the programme, Jungheinrich are supporting the commercial case for the conversion of their MHE vehicles to use fuel cells and providing Factory Acceptance Test facilities along with access to their customers to enable the customer trials.The customer trials are to be conducted over a minimum of a one week period with three Jungheinrich ECE 225 vehicles. However the fuel cell system is designed to fit into the standard size battery box with minimal adaptation needed to the vehicle for installation, enabling potential conversion of existing fleets for early commercial deployment.
