Product Overview

 

JENNY 1200

Portable Fuel Cell Power System

JENNY 1200 is SFC’s latest portable fuel cell. Efficient, compact and lightweight. JENNY 1200 charges your batteries without any user interaction. JENNY 1200 communicates and interoperates with your batteries, no matter where you are. JENNY 1200 powers all your equipment whether carried or left unmanned to operate alone.  

 Modern task forces require a portable, reliable energy supply. Missions can take from several days to several weeks. In order to supply power reliably to soldiers’ technical equipment, a huge amount of batteries had to be carried along. JENNY 1200 can charge batteries or directly supply power to electrical consumers in the field silently and fully automatically. Together with the SFC Power Manager 3G, several consumers can be supplied with power very efficiently at the same time. The advantages of the systems are a significant reduction in the number of batteries soldiers need to carry (with more than 75 % weight reduction for a mission with a duration of 96 hours), a barely detectable noise and heat signature, and almost maintenance-free operation. Total cost of ownership and expenditures for logistics are partly significantly reduced. The portable JENNY 1200 fuel cell is an addition to the JENNY series that is already field-proven and has been used by the German Armed Forces (Bundeswehr) for years. With a nominal power output of 50 Watt, the multi-awardwinning DMFC (Direct Methanol Fuel Cell) technology of SFC Energy for defense and security applications ideally extends the successful product portfolio of the already with NATO stock number introduced JENNY 600S (25 Watt) ideally. JENNY 1200 is in use with international defense organizations.
