*NEW* Application Note on Cell Resistance for SGL 25BC GDL when used with 740 MTS.

Download the Excel® spreadsheet that calculates the relationship between gas relative humidity, water vapor partial pressure and percent wet as function of user-defined operating conditions of humidifier temperature, sample temperature and system pressure. MTS 740 users will find this tool valuable when developing RH test profiles for membrane resistance and conductivity testing.
