Abstract

See full text

Embodiments herein relate to monitoring systems for chemical filters used with fuel cell systems. In an embodiment, a fuel cell chemical filter monitoring system is included having a processing unit and a sensor package. The sensor package can include one or more sensors. The sensor package can be configured to interface with an air flow channel of a fuel cell system upstream of a chemical filter and detect an amount of a chemical compound in the air flow channel. The sensor package can be operatively connected to the processing unit. The processing unit can be configured to track total exposure of the chemical filter to the chemical compound. The processing unit can be configured to estimate a remaining life of the chemical filter based on the tracked total exposure of the chemical filter and data regarding the total capacity of the chemical filter. Other embodiments are also included herein.
