Solid Polymer Electrolyte Oxygen Generator Assembly Life Testing at MSFC - The First Year 972376
A two year test program has been initiated to evaluate the effects of extended duration operation on a solid polymer electrolyte Oxygen Generator Assembly (OGA); in particular the cell stack and membrane phase separators. As part of this test program, the OGA was integrated into the Marshall Space Flight Center (MSFC) Water Recovery Test (WRT) Stage 10, a six month test, to use reclaimed water directly from the water processor product water storage tanks.
This paper will document results encountered and evaluated thus far in the life testing program.
