Selfrunning HHO system with 400 Watts additional output

[h2ocommuter]

Hi Les,

[Les Banki]

All,

The 2.4kW phase control power supply for the electrolyzer is usually placed in the ECU.

(There it is supplied by the low voltage supply rails which supply ALL circuits.
Further, it is additionally controlled by the pressure regulator circuit and/or the timer.)

However, I have just completed a “stand alone” version (with its own power supply of ±12V and +5V for the control circuits) for my friend George (now 84!), to drive his 240V, 120 cell electrolyzer.

While testing it, I discovered that if the load is already connected when power is applied, there is NO regulation, which means FULL power is applied!

(Without regulation, the power drawn by the electrolyzer might be FAR higher than desired and would at least result in blown fuses!)

The reason for the lack of regulation at power-up is that the power supply lines are not yet stable, thus the circuit cannot be expected to work properly!

ONE way to fix this is to delay the Triac control pulses for 1â€"2 seconds at power-up.
This will allow the power supply to stabilize.

There are many ways to introduce such a delay.
I choose a small MOSFET (2N7000) for the clamping of the pulses, controlled by an RC network with the correct time constant for the delay.
It also functions as a fast ON/OFF switch, controlled by the pressure regulator circuit and/or the timer.
(See circuit description for further details.)

I have now replaced the circuit diagram, description and the pcb layout with the edited versions. 
If you have downloaded the earlier versions, please replace them with the updated ones.

Further, to give you an idea of what is ‘involved’, I have attached two pictures.

Note that the ‘Vero board’ was necessary since this one-off, “stand alone” unit needs its own low voltage power supplies (with transformer).

On the front panel, the meter indicates actual load current which is set by the potentiometer. 
(Please refer to the circuit description how to set this current.)

The switch is NOT a load switch but an electronic ON/OFF control.

Best regards,
Les Banki

Hello
Harti presented the Think different Video from Oliver and Valentin at december of 2010

Today i like to present you one of some Videos of a developers meeting
held on the 30.09.11 in a small rural city in south Germany.

It was the first Event of this kind.

The landlord there owens a Energy station to produce Elektricity and heat.
He tryed many times to feed his Engine (1600ccm Ford Kent ) with HHO .
But he did not succseed many times , because of to less volume of hho.

Then the idea was born.
Lets come together and produce HHO to run the engine.

After about 6 weeks of preperation we meet in Wurzbach.

Friday evening we first come together to enjoy a barbecue and introduce eachother. We finnished early in the morning the other Day.

The Landlord and his wife are realy nice and very friendly people.
He managed  that we became  Brothers in Work.

Saturday morning we meet for Brekfast and than we brought our Hardware to the backside of the House where the Generator was located.
It took us some hours to supply all the Equipment with electricity and connect the 8 elektrolysers to a joint.

Finally we run the Engine with HHO only.
But in all the euphorie and happyness we did not take all mesures.

The big Meter to mesure the Gasoutput was not able to handle the volume. So we are not realy shure about the quantity of HHO that was used.
Later we run the Engine via a bottle Hydrogene pure to have a different sight. The Meter shows a consume of about 10-12 Liters H pure.

BUT WE DID IT.

We run a 1600ccm with HHO  and Hydrogene only.

The next Meeting will come. We will open the door to a new dimension.

Then we run the Engine in a cloesed loop.
