Abstract: An optical detection system for detecting undesirable constituents in a fuel cell system includes a sensing material configured to change color in the presence of the undesirable constituents and at least one sensor configured to register the change in color of the sensing material. The sensor is coupled to a corresponding light source. The sensing material, the sensor and the light source are enclosed in a housing.

Abstract: A modular fuel cell system includes a base, at least four power modules arranged in a row on the base, and a fuel processing module and power conditioning module arranged on at least one end of the row on the base. Each power module includes a separate cabinet which contains at least one fuel cell stack located in a hot box. The power modules are electrically and fluidly connected to the at least one fuel processing and power conditioning modules through the base.

Abstract: A modular fuel cell system includes a metal base, a plurality of power modules arranged in a row on the base, a fuel processing module and a power conditioning module arranged on at least one end of the row on the base.

Abstract: A semiconductor tester is disclosed that is adapted for testing semiconductor devices disposed on a handling apparatus. The semiconductor tester includes a tester housing defining a self-supporting frame and formed with an externally accessible opening adapted for receiving the handling apparatus. A test controller is disposed within the housing and carried by the frame. Pin electronics including tester circuitry are responsive to the test controller and proximately coupled thereto and mounted to the frame. A docking apparatus is disposed above the opening and is adapted to couple the tester circuitry to the handling apparatus.
