1. An external power supply is required to initially turn on the electronic controller.
2. By default, the
BOP Switch
is set to 1. When the system enters “Running Phase” the fuel cell will be able
to power its own BOP,
if Fuel cell power OUT voltage is higher than External Power Supply voltage.
3. By setting the
BOP Switch
to 0, the External Power Supply will power the BOP at all times including
“Running Phase”.
