Exceptionally eco-friendly

The EFOY Pro charges batteries fully automatically. The integrated charge controller monitors the charge status of the battery. When necessary, the EFOY Pro will automatically turn on and off when the battery is charged. This not only means that you always have good power reserves, but also that the batteries last much longer because the charging method prevents deep discharge. Using an inverter, 230 V devices can be connected.

The EFOY fuel cells are based on DMFC (Direct Methanol Fuel Cell) technology. They generate power from the fuel in a fuel cartridge (methanol) along with oxygen from the air. Methanol is converted directly into power. Besides generating power, the only byproduct is residual heat and water vapor and a very minute amount of carbon dioxide. All this makes EFOY fuel cells exceptionally environmentally friendly.

Operation of a direct methanol fuel cell

The operating principle of the EFOY hydrogen fuel cell

EFOY hydrogen fuel cells are based on PEM (polymer electrolyte membrane) technology. They generate power from hydrogen as fuel and oxygen obtained from the air. Hydrogen is converted directly into electricity. In addition to generating power, only a little water vapor is produced. All this is extremely environmentally friendly.

The EFOY hydrogen fuel cell serves as an emergency power supply and provides uninterrupted power to your applications in the event of a grid failure. The hydrogen cell starts as soon as the battery voltage falls below a certain threshold and then takes over the power supply to your application.

Autonomous power with EFOY tank cartridges
EFOY Fuel Cells are DMFC (Direct Methanol Fuel Cell) based fuel cells that use the fuel methanol. The methanol is stored in EFOY tank cartridges specifically designed for this purpose. They are specifically designed for use with the EFOY fuel cells so that they can be easily and cleanly replaced in seconds. Depending on the requirement, EFOY tank cartridges are available in 5, 10, 28 and 60 liters. There is a tank cartridge available for every situational requirement.

The highest possible quality standard
Ultra pure and clean methanol is necessary for reliable operation of the EFOY fuel cells. To ensure that quality and safety meets the strictest safety standards, every fill is overseen by SFC quality management. Only when original EFOY fuel cartridges are used can the maximum operating time of the fuel cell be guaranteed. The high-energy density of methanol results in the autonomy of your off-grid application being increased many times over.
