Equipment:

Power Source: The power source for all automotive cells is a motor driven automobile alternator and battery. We use a Delco 140 Amp automotive alternator driven 1:1 by a 2 HP 3450 RPM Marathon AC motor. The battery is a 225CCA gel cell type. When viewed on an oscilloscope, you would see that there is a significant A/C ripple on the DC voltage. The actual voltage is recorded for each test, and is approximately 13.8 volts. This system is used because it parallels the actual power conditions of a vehicle while cruising.

Digital DC Power Watt Meter, Model HB404: Used to measure DC Voltage, DC Amperage, and DC Watts. Calibration certified by Broadview Instrumentation Services, 7632B Hub Parkway, Valley View, Ohio 44125.

Auber Instruments SYL-1813 Multifunction Autometer with an RTD PT100 Temperature Sensor: Used to measure electrolyte temperature. Calibration certified by Broadview Instrumentation Services, 7632B Hub Parkway, Valley View, Ohio 44125.

Alicat M-50SLPM-D Mass Flow Meter: Used to measure HHO gas volume and mass. Calibration certified by Alicat Scientific, Inc. 7641 North Business Park Drive, Tucson, Arizona 85743. Calibrated to read a maximum of 30 LPM in any of 31 different gases including HHO specifically.

Test Procedure:

Each system submitted for testing will be measured at 4 different timed intervals:

• 5 mins.
• 10 mins.
• 30 mins.
• 60 mins.

At each interval the following measurements will be taken:

• Gas flow volume
• Mass flow
• Gas pressure
• Gas temperature
• Electrolyte temperature
• Input voltage
• Amps (current draw)
• Watts

Each set of tests will be photo documented.
