LABCELL™ LC50

Astris LABCELL™ LC50 is a small, alkaline fuel cell stack for laboratory and classroom demonstration and experimentation. The LC50 is a rugged fuel cell that can be completely disassembled and reassembled in order to display fuel cell components such as the cathode and the anode. The result is an excellent teaching and analytical tool.

Stacks are supplied in 0.75 V (single cell), 1.5 V, 3 V, 6V and 12 V rating, capable of delivering up to 60 W power. They operate on hydrogen and air.
