Yes, SFC fuel cartridges are designed for the most stringent safety requirements. Additionally, the fuel cartridges are approved and marked for road, sea and air transport.
Autonomous power with SFC fuel cartridges
SFC fuel cells are operated with the fuel methanol. The methanol is stored in SFC fuel cartridges that have been designed especially for this purpose. According to demand, SFC fuel cartridges are available in different 0.35, 2.5, 5, 10, 28 and 60 litre capacities. The maximum operating time of the fuel cell can only be guaranteed when using original SFC fuel cartridges. SFC fuel cartridges offer a lot of energy in the smallest space thanks to the high energy density of methanol. As a result, the autonomy of your off-grid applications can be increased many times.
Fuel cells convert chemical energy into electrical energy without interim stages and without much loss of efficiency.

SFC fuel cartridges are available worldwide. SFC has established a comprehensive logistics network for the sale of fuel cartridges. In addition, SFC fuel cartridges can also be transported on pallets via road, sea and air.
SFC fuel cartridges meet the strictest safety standards and have received UN approval for transportation by sea, road and air. Safety valves ensure that the user is never at risk of coming into contact with their contents. Every filling operation is monitored by SFC’s quality management team.
SFC fuel cartridges are designed for the requirements in tough application areas. The fuel cartridges in the M0.35 size is also available in the Desert version and can also be used in high temperatures up to +55°C.
SFC fuel cartridges offer a lot of energy in the smallest space. With a weight of just 8.4 kg, 10 l of methanol has a capacity of 11.1 kWh energy. To deliver the same amount of energy, around 280 kg of lead-gel batteries would be needed.
