The HumidiPower Fuel Cell Humidifier has a patented spiral wound hollow fiber design for high efficiency moisture transfer to air and other gases. It has a robust design, is compact and lightweight and has a low pressure drop to help minimize energy usage.

Pentair’s Fuel Cell Humidifiers are field-tested and designed for use in fuel cell applications. Fuel cells can be installed on buses, cars, and trains to provide continuous electricity with little to no emissions. The use of fuel cell technology, which relies upon electrochemical reactions to produce electricity, is gaining acceptance as a clean energy solution for reducing harmful air emissions.  The fuel cell humidifiers consume no electricity, derive humidity from fuel cell exhaust and recycle moisture from purge gas.
