Pure<strong>Cell</strong> <strong>200</strong><br />
<strong>Heat</strong> and <strong>Power</strong> <strong>Solution</strong>.<br />
The Pure<strong>Cell</strong> <strong>200</strong> solution is a clean, efficient, reliable<br />
fuel cell power plant. It produces <strong>200</strong> kilowatts of assured<br />
power plus up to 925,000 Btu/hour of heat for cogeneration<br />
applications.<br />
Proven technology<br />
As of July <strong>200</strong>5, the Pure<strong>Cell</strong> <strong>200</strong> solution fleet of commercial<br />
fuel cells has accumulated more than seven<br />
million hours of operational experience. More than 275<br />
Pure<strong>Cell</strong> solutions have been sold in 19 countries on five<br />
continents. The system powers schools, high-rise office<br />
buildings, hospitals, and manufacturing sites.<br />
Assured power<br />
The standard Pure<strong>Cell</strong> <strong>200</strong> system is a grid-connected<br />
unit, operating in parallel with electric utilities. You can<br />
also choose a dual-mode configuration which enables the<br />
unit to operate grid-connect or grid-independent –<br />
switching between modes automatically or on command.<br />
With dual mode configuration your power stays on even<br />
when the grid goes down.<br />
Environmentally sound design<br />
<strong>Fuel</strong> cells represent one of the cleanest power generating<br />
technologies available today. Pure<strong>Cell</strong> <strong>200</strong> systems<br />
operate well below air emission standards in every state.<br />
In fact, in California, the Pure<strong>Cell</strong> <strong>200</strong> solution meets the<br />
strictest emissions requirements as established by the<br />
California Air Resources Board (CARB) <strong>200</strong>7. Add in its<br />
quiet noise profile, and the Pure<strong>Cell</strong> solution is a welcome<br />
power alternative anywhere – indoors or outdoors,<br />
in cramped cities or quiet rural neighborhoods. Clean, efficient,<br />
reliable, secure and quiet – the Pure<strong>Cell</strong> <strong>200</strong><br />
power system is the ultimate solution.<br />
Pure<strong>Cell</strong> <strong>200</strong> <strong>Power</strong> System<br />
Pure<strong>Cell</strong> <strong>Solution</strong>s Feature:<br />
▼ Reliable power – Generates assured computer-grade<br />
power for a range of on-site power needs.<br />
▼ Flexible siting – With indoor and outdoor installation<br />
options, the Pure<strong>Cell</strong> <strong>200</strong> system connects easily with city<br />
gas and electrical distribution systems.<br />
▼ Scalable design – Factory assembled <strong>200</strong> kW modules<br />
operate in parallel to meet any electrical load requirements –<br />
simply add more units if your needs change.<br />
▼ Clean energy – Producing no harmful fumes or exhaust,<br />
the Pure<strong>Cell</strong> <strong>200</strong> system is virtually pollution free and<br />
meets or exceeds air emissions standards throughout<br />
the United States (CARB 07).<br />
▼ Low sound profile – The Pure<strong>Cell</strong> <strong>200</strong> system’s low<br />
noise profile (60 dbA@30 ft.) eliminates the need for<br />
sound proofing or hearing protection.<br />
▼ Remote monitoring – Remote monitoring and diagnostics<br />
allow for early fault detection and real-time trouble shooting.<br />

Pure<strong>Cell</strong> <strong>Heat</strong> & <strong>Power</strong> <strong>Solution</strong><br />
By the time grid-supplied power reaches you, much of the<br />
fuel’s original energy has been lost – but not its cost. You pay<br />
the utility for the lost energy anyway.<br />
Pure<strong>Cell</strong> systems are more than twice as efficient as the<br />
electrical grid. So you get double the energy from the same<br />
amount of fuel – instant efficiency and savings.<br />
First, there are no transmission losses. Energy is created<br />
right where it’s used – inside your building. Second, and more<br />

In today’s centralized power generation, a plant typically releases 67% of energy from fuel as waste heat, and the remaining 33% as electricity.<br />

importantly, waste heat is captured to generate additional useable<br />
energy for heating or cooling. The conversion of fuel to<br />
useable energy is more complete, which translates to higher<br />
efficiency. The process is cleaner, more reliable, and makes<br />
better use of natural gas fuel. The bottom line? Continuous<br />
savings – for you and for the environment.<br />

Lower costs to the end-user<br />
By recovering and using waste heat, cogeneration systems release, on average, 20% of energy as heat to the atmosphere, while the remaining 80% is<br />
converted to electricity, steam/hot water and chilled water, depending on the system.<br />

Pure<strong>Cell</strong> <strong>Heat</strong> & <strong>Power</strong> <strong>Solution</strong><br />
Pure<strong>Cell</strong> <strong>200</strong> power solutions are delivering more efficient,<br />
practical and secure power solutions throughout the world.<br />
The police station in New York’s Central Park relies<br />
on a UTC <strong>Power</strong> Pure<strong>Cell</strong> <strong>200</strong> solution to keep<br />
running - even when millions of people are in the<br />
dark for miles around as they were in <strong>200</strong>3.<br />

Alternative <strong>Fuel</strong> Experience.<br />
Free fuel. That’s what anaerobic digester gas (ADG) is for UTC <strong>Power</strong>’s<br />
Pure<strong>Cell</strong> <strong>200</strong> solution. ADG is a by-product of the wastewater treatment<br />
process containing methane, considered one of the single most-harmful<br />
greenhouse gases. UTC <strong>Power</strong> fuel cells currently generate 2.8<br />
Megawatts of premium quality power using this fuel. That equates to over<br />
6 million Kilowatt hours of experience, so you can rest assured our product<br />
is proven in this application. In addition, the Pure<strong>Cell</strong> <strong>200</strong> power<br />
solution is the only ADG fuel cell verification tested by the EPA through its<br />
strict Environmental Technology Verification program. More proof it will<br />
operate effectively on your ADG site. And that’s good for the environment.<br />
The Wastewater Treatment Plant in Bronx, New York, powers<br />
three Pure<strong>Cell</strong> <strong>200</strong> solutions. Collectively these units<br />
save New York City about 9,000 barrels of oil annually, in<br />
addition to providing other environmental benefits.<br />
