    Exclamation Good Production, But a lot of heat!!!

    hi, My dry cell production is just where I want it, But it gets hot fast. Is there any way of cooling it with out lowing my electrolyte mix. Would a PWM help? It runs at 23 amps 12v.

    You need to give us a whole lot more information about your system.
    How is it configured? How many stacks? Neutral plates per stack? Electrolyte concentration? Ect..
    Also, you mention that your production is just where you want it. How many LPM?

    Ok, now I'm confused. 50 plates doesn't make sense. 49 plates for 8 stacks of 6 cells would be right. I don't get where the extra plate goes.
    If you're running on 12 volts, what is the power supply?

    Especially if it's running on only 12 volts. That's 2v per cell, which should be fine.
