AmmPower Corp. Completes Successful Testing of Demonstration Unit to Validate Product Technology

The Demo Unit's performance has improved in multiple areas, from the start up sequence through shut down.

Start-up: Demonstrated a 40% faster ramp-up of temperature. This was accomplished by combining a new process gas heater with strategically placed localized heating elements. The ability to shorten the ramp-up time translates to less downtime and lower operating cost.

Heat Exchangers: AmmPower fabricated custom heat exchangers in-house, which outperformed the purchased ones that were used previously.

Insulation: Demonstrated a 15% reduction in heat transfer losses between components using new insulation strategies. Materials used were the result of testing in AmmPower's lab, which can replicate the Demo Unit's heat cycles.

Ammonia Monitoring: Gained ability to continuously monitor and record ammonia concentration using a nondispersive infrared (NDIR) sensor. Operator can switch between multiple sample ports during operation to evaluate performance in different areas of the machine.

Shutdown: Achieved a 90% reduction in time
