Features

♦ Features of SOFC holder.

No metal pollution:
All made of ceramics in hot section.

Easy to operate:
No necessity to use glass to seal by metaling it as in the conventional.
In the new seal method, ceramics seal with flexibility for sealing was tightened by
four springs and bolts made of ceramics. It’s possible to escape the thermal stress
of cell keeping gas seal performance during heating .

Start testing just after installment:
Put each parts on the both side (anode side and cathode side) ,pinch
ell and tighten the holder by four bolts.
Set the holder into the furnace.
Piping gas tube from gas supply unit to the gas inlet and gas outlet
at the edge of holder.
Connect current wire, voltage wire and thermocouple to the Electric
Load system and measurement equipment.
Heating and control temperature.
Very easy and short time for this preparation.
