HyCabinet
With the HyCabinet product as a cabinet solution (indoor/outdoor), Proton Motor offers the complete solution for a reliable and emission-free power supply by combining an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) system with a fuel cell system.
Typical applications / emergency power supply for:
- Energy storage systems based on hydrogen
- Supply of critical infrastructure e.g. data center
- Industry and data centers
- Self-sufficient energy supply
In addition, many other applications can be realized in which an efficient and environmentally friendly energy supply is required.
The Proton Motor solution:
With the HyCabinet, Proton Motor offers more than a normal emergency generator. The indoor/outdoor cabinet solution is available in several sizes and can also be customized in a variety of performance classes to meet specific customer requirements. The heart of the plant is formed by one or more fuel cell modules from Proton Motor, depending on the application.
By integrating and operating several modules in staggered or parallel operation, a HyCabinet can be designed and adapted for common industrial applications. As a rule, a UPS system is integrated as an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) to bridge the first few seconds. The long-term supply is then ensured via the fuel cell systems. The bridging times that can be realized in this way are limited only by the size of the hydrogen supply.
A power grid failure, even in the millisecond range, usually leads to major impairments or damage. In critical applications, this can have catastrophic effects. Therefore, especially here, the emergency power supply must be 100 percent reliable. Fuel cell-based solutions like the HyCabinet offer this reliability. In addition to the very high reliability, the low maintenance costs of the fuel cell systems compared to conventional diesel and/or battery technology speak for the application of Proton Motor systems as emergency power / back-up power or grid replacement systems.
