Fuel Cell Technologies
(FCT), based in Albuquerque, NM, incorporated in 1993, making
it one of the most experienced companies in the fuel cell industry
as a supplier of custom designed testing hardware and software.
Prior to the introduction of Fuel Cell Technologies, the founder
of the company, Chuck Derouin and Software Engineer, Don McMurry,
each worked for over 15 years in the Los Alamos National
Laboratory Fuel Cell Core Research Program. The scientists,
engineers, and technicians in this development group were the
original pioneers of modern-day, fuel cell technology.
The knowledge and expertise that Chuck and Don gained from years
of exposure to a wide range of fuel cell applications is one
of the greatest strengths of FCT for providing unmatched technology,
design, customer service, and support.
FCT provides state-of-the-art,
LabVIEW-based fuel cell test systems, cell
hardware and uniquely designed humidity bottles and humidification
systems (Note: the FCT humidity bottle utilizes Nafion
tubing that provides near dew-point humidification at any flow
rate). The FCT testing station incorporates a myriad of advanced
features including AC Impedance to quickly and accurately measure
real and imaginary components of cell resistance. The FCT cell
hardware is considered as the standard that all others
strive to achieve.
