H-5000 PEM Fuel Cell - 5000W
5kW PEM Fuel Cell Stack Overview
This fuel cell stack provides the highest amount of power out of all of the fuel cell stacks in the H-Series family. The H-5000 is an ideal eco-friendly companion for off-grid living as well as electrifying everything from a golf cart to an all-terrain vehicle. In golf carts and other applications the advantage of hydrogen fuel cell stacks over pure battery powered applications becomes obvious, because a fuel cell electric golf cart would require only one to two minutes of refueling time instead of several hours to recharge a battery. It is also possible to use the H-5000 to power outdoor events like concerts and weddings, which reduces their negative impact on the environment while also reducing the noise pollution associated with generating the needed electricity for a venue.
This fuel cell stack comes with the following:
- Connection Tubing
- Electronic Valves
- Electronic Control Box
- Fuel Cell On/Off Switch
- SCU On/Off Switch

Safety Requirements
Do not attach or detach power cables when the fuel cell stack is turned on. Warranty is void if the fuel cell stack is dismantled or otherwise modified. Hydrogen is a colorless, odorless, and flammable substance. Always operate and store the fuel cell stacks and hydrogen storage canisters in an area with ample ventilation. Fuel cell systems should always be equipped with a highly accurate hydrogen sensor to detect any hydrogen that has escaped within the system or from the hydrogen storage canister. Please refer to the H-5000 User Manual to see the full list of the safety requirements for the product.
