Objectives:

Complete the batch test procedure and test for the remaining fuel cell MEA's	.

Procedure Utilized:

The MEA's will be saturated in approximately 12 ml of 18 M-ohm water and agitated to remove any loose particles. The water must be introduced at the appropriate temperature for the operation to hold consistency. The Cyclic Sweep for each MEA's will then be conducted and followed by a power sweep. The MEA will remain in operation for 24 hours.

Environment:

Temperature-	70 degrees F

Barometer-	NA

Relative Humidity-	NA

Methods:

1.	Using a 15 ml conical tube, the MEA will be introduced as a folded cylinder into the conical tube.

2.	The 18 M-ohm water will then be heated to the appropriate temperature and introduced into the conical tube. Assurance that the amount of water introduced is 12 ml.

3.	The tube should then be sealed and agitated by vortex for 15 seconds.

4.	The MEA should then be removed and the Fixture Tests can then commence.
