Introduction: The Generation 5 HOH Cell has heralded a new era for High Mileage Enthusiasts by incorporating all the essential components for safe, reliable and efficient gas production. Installation flexibility has been a key consideration with this re-design with specific care taken to minimise the overall foot print. In most instances this system is unlikely to fit under the hood of a vehicle, therefore it has been designed for boot, tray and cab mounting.

This system has been subject to extensive testing:

• Pressure: – http://www.hohcells.com/pressure-testing/

Flexibility is key when selecting a system for your specific application and as such the core cells come in 3 sizes:

In all sizes the amount of cells and voltage supply options are variable:

Introduction:

The vehicles alternator provides the power source to operate the HOH Cell.

Many larger vehicles have heavy duty alternators that can operate at continuous amperage of 60 AMPs or more and in the trucking area this can be as high as 180AMPs, though 120AMPs is typical. In most vehicles the alternator produce 12-14VDC output which makes them ideal for the 6 Cell unit.

Once larger capacitites of gas is required the amperage needs to double in 15AMP increments for every litre of gas per minute. As this continues up to around 4 litres per minute (60AMPs) this tends to take most alternators to their limits.

Investigation in to high performance alternators has been carried out with the view of establishing an appropriate means to produce high output alternators that can provide the normal power to the vehicle’s systems, whilst at the same time produce up to 120VDC which is the legal limit in Australia for mobile power generation.

High voltage alternators and the associated devices connected need to be properly identified with shown warning label

Numerous alternators have been tested, with some standard alternator being modified to produce higher outputs:
