摘要： A fuel cell apparatus is formed by connecting four stacks via a supply/discharge box. A cooling water supply opening and a cooling water discharge opening are short-circuited by a cable so as to eliminate the electric potential difference therebetween. To avoid hindrance of gas flow due to water droplets, a drain port for discharging water droplets is provided near a fuel gas discharge opening of the supply/discharge box. Each stack is formed by clamping end plates disposed on opposite ends of stacked cells through the use of upper and lower tension plates. The thus-formed fuel cell apparatus is housed in an outer case that has a sealed construction for preventing penetration of foreign substances. Thus, the apparatus achieves a size reduction and an improvement in practicality.

摘要： A separator for a fuel cell includes a metal plate that is formed of a gas passage portion and a contact portion of a part other than the gas passage portion. The contact portion is brought into contact with a terminal of a cell voltage monitor attached to the fuel cell. The surface treatment applied to the gas passage portion is different from the surface treatment applied to the contact portion. The surface treatment applied to the gas passage portion includes a carbon coat, and the surface treatment applied to the contact portion includes no carbon coat.

摘要： Relays and the like are arranged so that any restriction is not imposed on a portion where a fastening member between end plates or the like is disposed. To realize this, a relay assembly is provided in a stack case. In this case, when the relay assembly is integrated with a service plug, cables between relays and the service plug can preferably be omitted. Moreover, the relay assembly includes a resin plate to which the relays and the service plug are attached, and these relays are electrically connected to the service plug via buses on the resin plate.
