In this paper, the performance and design of hydrogen production system using two commercial 4.2 kW proton exchange membrane (PEM) water electrolysis stacks embedded in a custom-designed electrolyser is described. The PEM electrolyser system has multiple levels of construction which include, stack section, cooling unit, Balance of Plant (BOP), power electronics and system safety, all integrated with aid of PLC controller. Particular system alarms and fault conditions trigger the emergency mode, which safely shuts down the system. A crucial aspect of design and operation protocols around hydrogen safety application in the whole integration process is applied. The system integrated with in-house built metal hydride compressor supplies high pressure hydrogen (up to 200 bar, 5 Nm3/h) to SAIAMC testing facilities.

Artykuł omawia konstrukcję oraz badanie osiągów systemu przeznaczonego do produkcji wodoru, który został zbudowany na bazie dwóch stosów elektrolizy wody typu PEM (4.2 kW każdy).System elektrolizera składa się z szeregu podzespołów, do których zaliczają się sekcja stosów, układ chłodzenia, zespół urządzeń wspomagających proces elektrolizy (BoP), układy zasilania elektrycznego, układ zabezpieczeń oraz kontroler typu PLC. Z uwagi na istotny aspekt bezpiecznej produkcji wodoru, kontroler wyłącza system w razie wystąpienia stanów alarmowych. System zintegrowano z kompresorem działającym w oparciu o wodorki metali, dostarczającego wodór przy wysokim ciśnieniu (200 bar, 5 Nm3/h) do laboratoriów badawczych (SAIAMC) na użytek własny.
