With DILICO Cell Voltage Pickup, the effort required for complex cell contacting is significantly reduced without sacrificing proven functionality or safety mechanisms. The cable free design minimizes potential sources of error, improves scalability in serial production, and enables a high level of functionality combined with excellent reliability. Optional real time data analysis supports early detection of deviations and fault patterns before they negatively affect the performance of individual cells or complete systems. This accelerates root cause analysis, reduces downtime, and improves quality assurance across the entire product lifecycle.
From a technical perspective, DILICO Cell Voltage Pickup is a wireless solution for continuous cell voltage monitoring in fuel cells, battery systems, and electrolyzers. The system combines the cell voltage contact interface, referred to as the pickup, with the measurement electronics known as the SmartCard, which performs highly precise and reliable voltage measurement. Continuous acquisition and evaluation of relevant cell voltages creates a transparent view of stack condition, delivering measurable improvements in operational reliability during serial production and especially during later operation.
In safety critical applications, stable cell voltage monitoring is essential to prevent damage to individual cells and consequential damage to the overall system. DILICO Cell Voltage Pickup continuously monitors defined undervoltage and overvoltage limits, supporting early fault detection. This reduces the risk of unplanned failures while extending stack lifetime through controlled and traceable operation.
The solution is designed for fast measurement cycles and is therefore suitable for demanding real time monitoring applications. The measurement interval is as low as 24 ms for 12 cells and up to 48 ms for up to 36 cells. DILICO Cell Voltage Pickup is compatible with common power converters and energy storage systems and supports cell voltages of up to 4.5 V per cell. Measurement data is transmitted via CAN, RS232, or PROFINET, enabling flexible integration into existing control architectures, automation systems, and test bench environments.
For optimal cell contacting, both the layout of the CVP module and the cell contact interface can be customized. This allows precise adaptation to existing stack geometries, installation space constraints, and manufacturing processes. Manufacturers benefit from technically clean integration without compromising measurement quality or system robustness.
An optional bleed down function is also available, enabling controlled discharge of cells. This supports defined handling of stacks, increases operational safety, and contributes to sustainable improvement of overall system longevity.
DILICO Cell Voltage Pickup is specifically designed for manufacturers of fuel cell and electrolyzer stacks in serial production who demand high levels of safety, measurement stability, and operational reliability. As an established manufacturer of analytical instruments for galvanic cells, DILICO offers deep technological expertise in industrial grade cell monitoring. This expertise helps customers improve products through precise condition data and reliable measurement solutions.
