How to build a 2L/min alkaline hydrogen generator
Current : 50A
Voltage : 12V
Rate : 2L/min
Catalysts : KOH(We recommend the use of KOH, and we have tested that NAOH is more likely to corrode stainless steel plates.)
Transformers : It is recommended to use transformers with constant voltage and current. This is because when the temperature rises, the current also increases. This can easily overheat and cause damage to the stainless steel plate.
In principle, 3 stainless steel plates can also produce 2 L/min of hydrogen. But the lifetime is very short and the temperature is very high. Our proposed solution is (The diameter of the area involved in the reaction is 103mm)
1. Rate: 600 ml/min 15A, 12V, 3 plates
2. Rate: 1L/min 25A 12V, 6 plates
3. Rate: 2L/min 51A 12V, 9 plate, as well as a heat sink and a more advanced rubber ring. If you have any doubts, you can tell us in the comments. We will do our best to answer them for you.

Preparation materials
1.Long Screw
2.Acrylic Plate
3.Electrode Plate
4.Rubber Ring
5.Middle Support Plate
6.Aluminum Support
7.Nut
8.Washer -
Choose an acrylic plate as the lower pressure plate
-
Assemble the long screw
-
Put the lead feet into the water inlet
-
Put the long screw into the fixing port
-
Insert the spacer
-
Install the rubber ring
-
Install the electrode plate
-
Insert the washer and nut
-
Install the rubber ring
-
Install the middle deck
-
Install the acrylic sheet
-
Install the aluminum support into the water inlet
-
Tighten all retaining nuts
-
Adjust the gap
-
Carry out a leak test and check for leaks
-
If there are bubbles, it is leaking
-
If no bubbles emerge, the device is in good condition
-
Test on the test stand
-
Connect the inlet, outlet and return pipes
-
Connect the power cord
Red positive level, black negative level
-
Connect the water pump line
Red positive level, black negative level
-
Turn on the switch
-
Check if the device is working properly
-
Complete the installation if there is no problem in the test
-
