The transport and automotive industries are working on various zero-emission concepts to meet future decarbonization targets. Green hydrogen for fuel cells or as fuel for internal combustion engines is considered CO2 neutral and is consequently seen as one of the most promising energy carriers of the future. The AVL H2D hydrogen measurement system is the optimal tool to support the development of fuel cells and H2 combustion engines.
For fuel cell applications, the H2D can be equipped with two inlets, one of them is a high-pressure, low-consumption inlet allowing separate anode measurements.
The system has a sample rate of 10 Hz with fast response times (t90 ≤ 200 ms for main inlet), which is indispensable for fuel cell development.
Optionally, it can measure additional components such as N2, O2, H2O and CO2 (H2D +).
In the test cell, the H2D can be seamlessly connected to an AVL emission measurement system like an AMA SL, AMA i60 or SESAM i60 FT and is controlled by only one common interface to the automation system. Optionally, it can be used stand-alone.

H2D for ICE Testing
The H2D ICE models offer general hydrogen measurement for internal combustion engine with filter and chiller for water removal or a specific H2 ICE measurement without the chiller for a fast H2 measurement in combination with the AVL SESAM i60 FT.
H2D for Fuel Cell Testing
The H2D FC model offers hydrogen measurement for fuel cell applications with a fast sampling inlet for the vehicle tailpipe or the fuel cell cathode side and a separate high pressure and low consumption inlet for the fuel cell anode side.
H2D + for ICE and Fuel Cell Testing
In addition to hydrogen measurement, the H2D + model offers the measurement of nitrogen (N2), oxygen (O2), water (H2O) and carbon dioxide (CO2), either for internal combustion engines with one sample inlet or for fuel cell applications with two sample inlets.
The AVL SESAM i60 FT SII is a Fourier-Transform Infra-Red exhaust gas measurement system offering evaluation methods optimized for different fuels and applications.
The AVL AMA SL is a exhaust measurement system that is revolutionizing emission testing. It is ideally suited to both research and development applications and certification for all types of engines and fuels.
The new benchmark for full-flow diluted emission testing is designed to take up much less space than conventional system cabinets and is built to use less energy.
The AVL iGENERATION Series II clears the way for intelligent and intuitive R&D and certification emission testing according to the latest worldwide emission regulations.
The AVL iCAL product line includes everything you need to accurately calibrate emission measurement devices according to the legal obligations of global markets.
No matter which alternative fuel will be used to operate internal combustion engines on testbeds, we have the right testing solution.
AVL designed the integrated Fuel Cell System Testbed to provide highly efficient and accurate testing while minimizing integration efforts. Reusing our reliable and proven modules and transferring our R&D expertise and maturity into a compact solution was crucial.
New Technologies demand not just new testing methods and testing devices but also customized safety measures.
