Hydrogen Energy with Fuel Cells & Electrolyzers.
Fuel cells and electrolyzers are at the core of clean hydrogen energy. Fuel cells convert hydrogen into electricity with zero emissions, while electrolyzers produce hydrogen by splitting water using renewable power. Together, they enable efficient energy generation, storage, and decarbonization across industries.
To accelerate innovation in hydrogen technologies, researchers and developers need test systems that deliver precise, reliable data across a wide range of operating conditions. From material screening to full-stack evaluation, performance insights are key.
BioLogic BluPEM is a fully integrated platform for advanced fuel cell or electrolyzer testing. Designed for demanding R&D, BluPEM offers:
High-resolution electrochemical measurements
Precise control of gas flow, temperature, pressure, and humidity
Automation-ready software for long-duration testing
Built-in Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) with real-time quality indicators

Why choose BioLogic® Test Stations?
Humidity Control
Membrane hydration is essential for efficiency and longevity. BluPEM maintains dew point accuracy within ±1°C (60–90°C), with a total range from 10°C to 120°C, and rapid temperature changes without overshoot.
Temperature Control
Maintain stable operating conditions with real-time feedback from K-type thermocouples and analog regulation. Multiple control points (humidifier, cell, condenser, and piping) enhance precision across the entire system.
Pressure Control
Backpressure impacts performance and durability. BluPEM allows independent pressure control on the anode and cathode sides, with manual or software regulation from 0.2 to 2 bar at ±0.02 bar resolution.
High-Performance Potentiostats
BioLogic potentiostats offer low-noise, high-resolution electrochemical measurements across all common techniques. The platform supports comprehensive analysis through EC-Lab® software including polarization curves, l_
Fully Integrated EIS
Perform advanced EIS measurements up to 2 kW without external modules. BioLogic’s proprietary EIS QI™ provides real-time indicators of data quality, ensuring reliable interpretation and actionable insights.
Custom Configurations
Each BluPEM system is built to perfectly align with your unique application and testing requirements. Our flexible architecture allows you to customize gas flow rates and composition, including mixing. Power requirements are scaled to your testing protocols, while advanced configurations can accommodate SOFC and SOEC applications. All testing conditions can be optimized to fit your research goals.
