SFC Energy EFOY Series

SFC Energy presents new generation of EFOY Pro fuel cell: Fifth generation EFOY Pro offers more connectivity and IoT functionalities, longer lifetime of the EFOY Pro reduces operating costs by up to 33%, expansion of performance range and flexibility.

EFOY Fuel Cells are the ideal power generators for a wide range of stationary and mobile applications. They generate electricity reliably for weeks and months without user intervention. The EFOY direct methanol fuel cells are available as EFOY and EFOY Pro models with an output of up to 500 W depending on the power requirements and user requirements. Our EFOY and EFOY Pro models are designed for different application purposes. The EFOY models are designed for temporary applications with low operating hours and are used as a back-up power supply for grid-connected or solar-powered hybrid installations. The EFOY Pro series is ideal for continuous operation and can also be used in hybrid operation. You can operate your application completely autonomously with the EFOYPro, compensate for low solar output and use smaller solar modules.

EFOY Fuel Manager

The Fuel Manager (FM) allows you to operate several EFOY fuel cartridges with one EFOY. Depending on the model, two, four or eight fuel cartridges can be simultaneously connected. The Fuel Manager automatically switches from the empty one to the next full fuel cartridge and ensures a long self sufficiency without user intervention.

EFOY_Control_Panel

Control and configuration via control panel or the EFOY app

The control panel in the EFOY makes it possible to easily operate the EFOY and the EFOY Pro Fuel Cell. With just a few clicks, you can view information about the current operation of the fuel cell, such as the average charge duration, the battery voltage, the current charging current as well as the fuel cartridge fill level.

Battery parameters can always be adapted to special requirements. You can also access this data via Bluetooth or your EFOY app. All you need to do this is the EFOY Bluetooth adapter.

 
 

EFOY Fuel Cartridges High energy density and level of safety

EFOY_Fuel_ContainersEFOY direct methanol fuel cells from SFC are operated using methanol. The methanol is stored in EFOY fuel cartridges that have been designed especially for this purpose. Depending on requirements, EFOY fuel cartridges are available in 5, 10, 28 and 60 litre capacities. High-purity methanol is needed to reliably operate the EFOY Fuel Cells. To ensure compliance with the strictest safety standards, each filling operation is supervised by SFC quality management. Only when original EFOY fuel cartridges are used, can the maximum operating life of the fuel cell be guaranteed.
  • High energy density of fuel cartridges with 1.1 kWh/litre
  • 1 kWh= 0.9 litre
  • Child safety lock and safety valve
  • Certified according to UN3473 for road, sea and air freight
