Reliable Off-Grid and Mobile Energy Supply: EFOY Pro Fuel Cells

Reliable off-grid and mobile energy supply
EFOY Pro fuel cells
Reliable energy when far away from the mains grid this is provided by the EFOY Pro fuel cell. When used as part of off-grid and mobile systems, the fuel cell automatically charges batteries without user intervention 24 hours a day and under all weather conditions.
The EFOY Pro was specially developed for professional daily use.
100 % reliability and operating safety Long periods of autonomy, maintenance-free Remote monitoring possible Light and compact Quiet and emission-free
Direct methanol fuel cells
All SFC fuel cells use DMFC (direct methanol fuel cell) technology. Inside the cells, an environmentally-friendly catalytic process directly converts methanol alcohol into electricity, efficiently and without any intermediate steps. This technology is one of cleanest methods available for generating electricity. Direct methanol fuel cells are the ideal energy solution for remote and mobile applications.
Connect it switch it on no worries

The EFOY Pro is an intelligent electricity generator. It is directly connected to the battery supplying your power consumers and automatically recharges it when necessary. The user does not need to look after anything. The user can use the remote monitoring to check that the fuel cell is working properly. The electricity generation is very efficient, quiet and maintenance-free because the process has no moving parts.
100 % availability weather independent

A perfect solution for ensuring 100% availability is to use the EFOY Pro as a backup system in a solar power station. The fuel cell automatically comes into operation as soon as the solar system is not able to provide enough power. This allows expensive solar systems to be of smaller dimensions and greatly increases the reliability of the system as a whole.

Precisely stated: The advantages of methanol as an energy source

Methanol as a fuel offers a number of decisive advantages compared to classical fuels: Extremely high energy density: 10 l of methanol has a capacity of 11.1 kWh of electricity at a weight of only 7.9 kg corresponding to about 1,400 Wh/kg. Safety tested EFOY fuel cartridges are designed to the highest levels of safety and carry the TV GS seal of tested safety and UN approval for air transport. Their construction ensures that the user can never come into contact with the contents. Environmentally-friendly Methanol can be generated from renewable resources (e.g. from biomass and even household waste), does not damage the groundwater or the ozone layer and exists naturally (in small concentrations) in the environment and the human body.

Low emissions, no heat, no noise The emissions from an EFOY fuel cell are so low that they protect both the environment and the user in the vehicle. One can work directly next to an EFOY fuel cell in a closed vehicle, safely and for long periods of time. Measuring devices and telecommunication equipment are not influenced or impaired by the EFOY Pro. Operation in closed spaces, ideal for concealed use When hidden in the cargo space of a vehicle the EFOY Pro works silently and invisibly. The vehicle can remain standing for weeks without any user intervention. Quiet and inconspicuous In operation the EFOY Pro emits a sound level of only 23 dB (A) at a distance of 7 m this cannot be heard by passers-by, thus reducing the chances of a concealed camera being discovered.

Increased safety for construction site workers The EFOY Pro fuel cell greatly increases the operating time of (e.g.) traffic control systems. This increases the safety of your employees on construction sites and decreases service costs because the batteries do not need to be replaced. Quiet, emission-free energy supply for the inner city The EFOY Pro fuel cell can be used without reservation in the inner city and at night, without the risk of noise emission problems. The only gases emitted are carbon dioxide and water, in quantities about the same as that emitted by a childs breath.

Long periods of autonomy reliability of supply The EFOY Pro allows effective catastrophe management and/or continuous data acquisition and availability. The remote monitoring system informs you in time when a fuel cartridge needs to be replaced. This provides you with planning security and you can be sure that your system is running perfectly. Significant cost reduction When combined with a battery, the EFOY Pro greatly extends the autonomy of your applications. On-site visits and the costs associated with recharging or replacing the batteries are significantly reduced.

Mobile surveillance cameras for railroads and events reliable and flexible
For us, the EFOY Pro fuel cell is the most innovative and cleanest way to supply power to our Mobile Autonomous Camera System (MACS). The fuel cell not only gives us the assurance that the camera will have power in any weather, but it also lengthens service intervals considerably. John Polling, CEO of @ Xit
Ensured safety security and fire watch

Being able to ensure 100 % reliable operation of Sentinelle away from the grid with the EFOY Pro 2200 fuel cell is an important factor for ensuring the broad usability of our new technology in many applications, where security and prevention of danger or theft are critical. We start now with forest fire watch and construction and parking site observation, but there are many more areas, where the availability of our mobile, reliable and flexible off-grid camera system with EFOY Pro fuel cell will make a major contribution to more safety.

Stationary remote power supply for meteorology stations

UPS Systems is the UKs leading supplier of fuel cells for standby power applications and have broad experience of their use in areas where there is no mains grid access where they have to be relied upon as a prime power source. We believe that fuel cell systems are an ideal solution to this problem as they are both weatherproof and have almost unlimited run times when compared to batteries. Tom Sperrey, UPS Systems, GB
Tested safety
From the very beginning, EFOY fuel cells and EFOY fuel cartridges were designed for maximum safety. This is confirmed by numerous certificates.
