Dazo Water Fuel HHO Technology Philippines
Frequently Asked Questions from DAZO WATER FUEL HHO TECHNOLOGY
The most frequently asked question is:
1.) How does hydroxy gas work ?
It's
very simple really. You don't touch your engine. A stainless steel
reservoir is placed in the car, somewhere under the hood. You
fill it with distilled water. The device is supplied with
electricity (12 Volts) from the battery, and via
electrolysis it produces Hydroxy gas (Hydrogen+Oxygen, Oxyhydrogen).
The Hydroxy gas is supplied to the engine via intake manifold or carb. The gas then helps your gasoline burn more efficiently, while producing its own combustion. That added combustion of the hydrogen gives you more power, and ultimately requires less gasoline to run your engine, resulting, in better gas mileage.
to It seems like it violates the laws of physics? But it doesn't. We
know that splitting water into hydrogen and oxygen by electrolysis
requires more energy than you get by burning the hydrogen produced.
But in our case HHO gas acts as a catalyst to better burn your gasoline and is increasing your engine efficiency.
2.) What is hydroxy gas?
It is the gas produced when water is broken down by electrolysis into a mixture of hydrogen gas and oxygen gas.
3.) What is a HHO cell generator?
A
HHO generator cell is a simple, compact, electrolyzer which produces
low volumes of gas which, when added to the air entering the engine,
improves the burn quality of the engine’s normal fuel. It reduces
unwanted emissions, produces more pulling power, cleans out old carbon
deposits inside the engine, and can often improve mpg performance.
4.) What is an electrolyte?
An
electrolyte is a chemical added to water to make electrolysis easier.
The best electrolytes do not get consumed during electrolysis.
5.) What is an electrodes?
An
electrode is a piece of metal which is placed in the electrolyte to
allow electrical current to be passed through the electrolyte.
6.) What materials make the best electrodes?
Years
of testing has shown that 316L-grade (“food-grade”) stainless steel is
the best metal to use. Metals which are completely unsuitable include
copper, aluminum and platinum.
7.) How big should electrodes be?
Electrodes
get eroded with use if the area of (one side of) the electrode is less
than 2 square inches (1290 square mm) per amp of current carried.
Erosion reduces and gas production is improved with increasing electrode
area up to 4 square inches per amp. Above that, no noticeable
improvement is seen.
8.) How thick should electrodes be?
The
only limit on how thin the electrode material can be is the practical
issue of holding it securely in place. It is usual for the gap between
electrodes to be quite small, so 20 gauge or 22 gauge - say 1/16 inch
is generally chosen. Thicker plates weigh more, cost more and take up
more space.Do the electrodes wear out?In a properly designed and
operated electrolyzer, the plates will be in first-class condition after
a year of use.
9.) What is an electrolyzer?
An
electrolyzer is a device intended to convert water to hydroxy gas in
considerable volumes and at the minimum possible current. There are
several designs which you could build.Can I make my own?If you have a
reasonable level of skill (or have a friend who has), then yes,
certainly you can build one.What current is needed?Electrical current is
usually in the 5 amps to 20 amps range. One must undergo a skilled
training on hydrogen fuel cells before trying to build one for
themselves ask Pinoy Pride Inventor for guidelines...
10.) Will I need a new alternator?
Under
most circumstances you will not. When calculating the energy your
hydrogen fuel cells make sure you don't use more than 20% of your
alternators MAX amperage. This will ensure that it will not fail
prematurely.
11.) Do I need to know electronics?
Electronics
is a must and making an advanced electrolyzer, then it can be useful.
You have to master the HHO wirings, how the hydrogen fuel cell is
connected to the PWM ( Pulse Width Modulator ) 40Amps relay, 30Amps
circuit breaker, connected to the automotive battery, with amp meter,
relay 40Amps is connected to a ignition switch to a 12amps circuit
breaker, and control switch to power the hydrogen fuel cell, ask for
proper HHO wirings or attend a Free Six Month Course of Pinoy Pride
Inventor of HHO wirings and know how of HHO technology for safety.
Pretty simple if you know all the aspects of HHO technology ask Pinoy
Pride Inventor.
12.) What safety devices are needed?
You
will need a flash arrestor to keep your system safe from engine
backfires. A backfire may ignite the HHO gas being injected into the
engine. A flash arrestor is a bubbler where the fire will stop when it
reach there, it is also served as FUSE, so your engine is SAFE from
engine backfire..
13.) How can I measure gas output?
Generally,
you don’t need to. If you want to, then fill a basin with distilled
water. Fill a plastic soda bottle with water and position it upside
down with the neck under the water in the basin. Feed the tube from
your bubbler up into the neck of the bottle, and measure the length of
time taken to fill the bottle with gas. If the bottle is 2 liters and
it takes four minutes to fill it with gas, then the gas production rate
is 2 liters / 4 minutes = 0.5 lpm.
14.) How much gas do I need for my engine size?
It
depends to a large extent on the engine design and vehicle weight, but
in general, 1/4 to 1/2 liter per minute of production will be needed
for every liter of engine displacement.
15.) How much water FUEL will be used?
One
liter of water produces about 1,850 liters of hydroxy gas. So, a 1.3
lpm of hydroxy gas will used 1 liter of water in 23.7 hours of running.
An electrolyzer producing 100 lpm of hydroxy gas will use 1 liter of
water in 18.5 minutes of running.
16.) Can I use any kind of water?
It
is highly recommended that you use distilled or de-ionizedwater as
other varieties leave residues behind when the water becomes gas. Ask
Pinoy Pride Inventor for correct mixture , so it will not damage your
hydrogen fuel cell.
17.) What happens if I forget to top the hydrogen fuel cell reservoir with water?
The
electrodes will become partially uncovered and the gas production will
drop off, so you should keep an eye on the water level.
18.) Can I use hydrogen fuel cell generator with a diesel?
Yes.
There is a theoretical limit where there must be 20% of diesel fuel in
the cylinder, but it would be nearly impossible to produce hydroxy gas
fast enough to exceed this upper limit.
19.) Can I use a hydrogen fuel cell with a turbocharger?
Yes. Just feed the hydroxy gas to the low-pressure side of the turbocharger.
20.) Does the engine timing need to be changed?
With
a hydrogen fuel cell, there is no need until gas production approaches
3 lpm. At this point, the hydroxy gas ceases to be a fossil fuel
enhancer and starts to become a second fuel in its own right. As the
gas production rate increases further, the spark timing needs to be
delayed (“retarded”) gradually. The maximum delay is to a point some 12
degrees after Top Dead Center. This is not something you are likely to
need to bother about for quite some time.
21.) Will my engine rust?
No more than usual - actually, less than usual as hydroxy gas is a very helpful additive and/or fuel.
22.) What is the difference between Hydrogen in pressurized tanks compared to Brown's Gas or egas or hydroxy gas?
Mr
Brown’s invention allows oxygen and hydrogen extracted from ordinary
tap water to be used safely for almost any type of burning fuel. He
envisages the day when cars, stoves, heating and most of industry can be
run on water or the gas extracted from it. He has perfected his
invention in a cutting and welding torch, similar to an oxyacetylene
torch, which is 30 times cheaper than present torches and burns with a
flame seven times hotter. Hydrogen in a pressurized tank is
para-hydrogen as Brown's gas a combo of hydrogen and oxygen is
ortho-hydrogen, a different property of hydrogen that has a stronger
combustion properties, if used right away. On board electrolysis, make
the egas as you drive is by far the cleanest fuel on the planet.Made
plenty of the generators and they work well, but the sludging up does
create a serious problem and is a curse. It is obviously iron or steel
leached out of the stainless steel and I just can't get around it.
23.)
Do you have any suggestions to eliminate this ? If so can you tell me
how to do it , I have a 30amp speed controller hooked up to the system
and man it really produces the E gas! heeps of it. But as the sludge
builds up, down goes the efficiency of the unit?
Yes,
there is an answer! I found out about a month ago if you add dummy
plates, or neutral plates between the pos. and neg. electrode plates,
they absorb voltage. See my attachment. I now use 15 plates. (The most
that I can fit into a 4" cylinder. ) Our plate configuration is as
follows ?: ( - n n n + + n n n - -nnn+ ) The water in the cell does not
get so hot and the anode red mud/sludge slows way down. You still get
some but not like before.My theory is that 12 volts in electrolysis, is
fine for the first 5 minutes, until the water heats up. (1.8 volts) is
where the break off point is of no heat exchange. The 12 & 15
plate cell I have now, takes awhile for it to get warm, about 1/2
hour.One thing though, if you add the neutral plates (all insulated
about 1/8" apart) they don't give off much bubbles, until after they
get worked in and all absorbed with hydrogen. (one week)The sludge is
the impurities in the water being oxidized and some iron out of the
electrodes, and we have been cooking them. They make steam as well, it
burns too!Another thing, your amperage will drop way down. Instead of
my usual 1/2 teaspoon of electrolyte, you have to use 3 tablespoons of
electrolyte to get back up to 20 amps. 25amps when it heats up after a
1/2 hour of driving in warm climate. In cold climate you never make
experience the amps going up.
24.) Do you blow 30 amp
fuses a lot? Are you getting better gas mileage? More horsepower?
I have
only one question about the hydrogen generator cell . Is the device
supposed to make your car run completely on water/hydrogen? or on a mix
of water/hydrogen and gasoline?
A mix. . Just a gas
mileage saver for now. The same hydroxy gas if you produce enough of it
can run a car purely on water, if you ever make one, don't tell
anybody, As soon as the word gets out, the feds will be at your
door.The transition from gas to water will have to be gradual, I would
like it to happen over night, and that is what they are afraid of. They
are pushing all of us with their gas prices and wars & military
bases, all funded by the energy dept. and our tax dollars.To get enough
hydroxy gas you have to brake the 1825 laws of Faraday (far - a - day
-ago) easy today with all the modern electronics, split the water with
the right frequency and quadruple the amps with 2 volts and you have
it! Many are working on it.Will I have to mess with my car's oxygen
sensors to get better mpg.?Most larger motors, have the computers set
to full gas guzzle mode. When the Oxygen Sensor (extra pollution
device) senses a lean emission, sensing oxygen in the exhaust (lean
air/gas mixture) it tells the computer to dump more gas , as if to
quench the fire with too much fuel, resulting in an extra smoggy,
smelly ride, but powerful and robust. Not needed today in a time of
crisis.Too offset this problem you can install , EIFE, or use a Map/Maf
enhancer or both.
25.) How does a hydrogen generator cell work?
12
volts from your battery going to 2 electrodes in a water container
that can take up to boiling temp.s, separates hydrogen gas on the
cathode (-) rod and oxygen gas comes off the anode (+) rod from H2O
with a 1-3% solution of electrolyte. KOH is the best electrolyte, but
you can use lye, sulfuric acid. KOH (Potassium Hydroxide) is a base for
the electrolysis to happen. Buy at chemical suppliers. The combo of
Hydrogen & oxygen gases mix together burn clean and output a high
combustion. Called hydroxy gas or egas. They act like a catalyst to your
gasoline or propane burning engines. As long as you burn the gas as
you drive their is no danger of storing/compressing the gases in tanks
(like propane)That is the whole idea of "On Board Electrolysis Fuel
Cells". Only make enough gas as you need. After you build a hho cell
generator, it gets you to thinking, hey if this works why not make one
that produces enough gas to run my car totally on water! That is the
part the DOE, the Oil Corp.s do not want you to do. It will cut them
off someday.So a gradual moving away from fossil fuels is on it's way. A
hydrogen hho is the first step. 100% Water as a Fuel is the goal.
Also remember "perfect love casts out all fear" the Bible says that. So
Go for it Dude! What most of us don't know is that during warm up and
acceleration the EFI (electronic fuel injection) engine does indeed run
with a rich mixture, but during cruise the engine control unit (ECU)
runs in.
26.) What about the leaner air/fuel mixture and the possibility of burning valves?
Exhaust Gas Temperature, Lean Mixtures, and Burning Valves operating my vehicle at a leaner mixture , cause damage to my valves?
In
pursuit of the best possible gas mileage, we have had repeated
questions from misinformed customers concerning whether they would burn
their valves by running the extra lean mixture.
I am sure the
misinformation comes from the aviation field. Being an aviator until
last year's near fatal experimental aircraft accident, I know that
piston engine aircraft take off and climb at maximum power, and cruise
at a leaner mixture, watching the EGT gauge to insure a safe
temperature. Of course we all assume that safe temperature means a
temperature that doesn't burn the valves.This information gets us to
assume that an electronic fuel injected engine runs at the rich mixture
that is cool enough to protect the valves from burning. Most also
assume that if we lean out the mixture we will be in danger of burning
the valves. A too hot exhaust gas temperature also would indicate a
too hot combustion temperature that happens to produce NOx, the oxides
of nitrogen that are considered as toxic pollution.hat is called closed
loop operation, which targets a 14.7 to 1 air fuel ratio. This ratio
is called stoichiometric, meaning that there is a perfect mixture of
air and fuel to insure complete combustion. This also happens to be the
perfect mixture to get the highest temperature of combustion, and
therefore the highest exhaust gas temperature (EGT). Any leaner (more
air) mixture will cause a cooler combustion, and any richer (more fuel)
mixture will also cause a cooler combustion.Some gauge manufacturers
say you should tune to achieve maximum or peak EGT for maximum
performance. This is incorrect. Peak EGT generally occurs at an AFR of
around 14.7- 15.0 to 1 on gasoline. This is far too lean for maximum
power and is dangerous under continuous WOT conditions. Many people
think that the leaner you go, the higher the EGT gets. This is also
incorrect. Peak EGT occurs at stoichiometry- about 15 to 1 for our
purposes. If you go richer than 15 to 1, EGT will drop and if you go
leaner than 15 to 1 EGT will ALSO drop. It is VERY important to know
which side of peak EGT you are on before making adjustments. It is safe
to say that peak power will occur at an EGT somewhat colder than peak
,As you can probably figure out by now, leaning the mixture from the
target 14.7 to 1 will NOT cause a hotter exhaust nor will it cause you
to burn your valves. This is not to say that leaning the ECU's program
under all conditions will cause a cooler exhaust. There is one
condition that could be hotter and that would be running at WOT (wide
open throttle) at 14.7 to 1 instead of the programmed 13 to 1. A
continuous running at this condition might indeed burn your valves.But
how often would a mileage conscientious driver equipped with hydrogen
fuel cell want to run at WOT for extended periods of time at 14.7 to 1
mixture? First of all a conscientious driver would be following the
driving tips in the manual which discourages WOT driving all together,
say nothing about an extended WOT operation. Also if a Hydrogen Fuel
Cells is adjusted properly, it will be running at a much higher
(leaner) mixture than 14.7 to 1, even at full throttle.Being a research
scientist, I don't like to take anyone's word for anything so I have
ordered two EGT gauges, both of which can read the temperatures of two
sensors. I will verify all that has been written in this newsletter
and will report the results in a later issue.So to answer the original
question:Will operating my vehicle at a leaner mixture with Hydrogen
Fuel Cell, cause damage to my valves? NO.Verification:On June 11th I
finally installed one of my EGT gauges. The probe had a rather short
lead so I ended up running with the EGT gauge on top of my hood, rubber
banded to the windshield wiper. I had to drill and tap a hole for the
threaded probe, which worked out fine. It was a little tight for
space inside the engine compartment so I used a right angle portable
drill and a socket and ratchet on the tap. Once the probe was
warmed up I cruised at a constant speed and throttle setting and dialed
in a leaner fuel mixture while watching the gauge. What is claimed
above regarding EGT and fuel ratio was indeed verified. At cruise the
EGT was about 10 degrees cooler at 13:1 air/fuel ratio than it was at
14.7:1. At 17:1 it was also 10 degrees cooler. At 19:1 it was 20
degrees cooler, and at 21:1 it was 30 degrees cooler. The temperature
really had more to do with the throttle setting than anything else. At
high throttle settings the EGT was in the 900s, at high cruise in the
800s, at medium cruise in the 700s, at low cruise in the 600s, and at
idle in the 500s. With this large range of temperatures the small
change due to fuel ratio was insignificant. One thing that is
notable is the fact that any set power output typically produced the
same or similar temperatures, regardless of the fuel ratio. Even
though the higher fuel ratio caused a lower temperature at a set
throttle position, to keep the same power it took a slightly more open
throttle, which caused the temperature to rise back to the same reading
as the lower ratio and throttle setting that produced the same power.
Of course this was not quite true with those full throttle, rich ratio
conditions when the EGT is hot but not as hot as it would be at 14.7:1
fuel ratio. The throttle setting determined more than just
the EGT, it determined the amount of temperature drop that was caused
by the increasing fuel ratio. At idle there was only a 5-10 degree
drop, but at higher throttle settings there was more than a
40 degrees of drop.
26.) Will the Dazo Water Fuel HHO generator cell void my warranty?
The short answer is NO. The long answer is an explanation of what a
warranty is. It is obvious that you are asking the wrong question.
The proper question is, “If I have hho cell generator installed on my
vehicle can my manufacturer refuse to pay for fixing my car?” The
answer is the same as for anything added to your vehicle. For example
if you change your tires to a different brand than what the vehicle
came with, can the manufacturer refuse to pay for fire damage under my
hood. Well, that would depend on whether the tires caused the fire.
If the tire blew out and caused you to run off the road and crash into a
tree, leaking gasoline and catching fire, yes the manufacture could
say, “No, we are not responsible for that fire damage so we won’t pay.
So if something about the Hydrogen Boost system, like improper
installation, causes damage to your engine, don’t expect the
manufacturer to pay for the damage done. The main thing that could
cause damage is dumping a water solution of strong chemicals into your
engine. That can not happen with a properly installed hho generator
cell system but if you ignore the installation instructions because you
are a great experimenter who “knows what he’s doing” then you could
cause damage. There is nothing about the hho cell generator system
that can cause damage by itself. Only improper installation or use can
possibly cause damage that the manufacturer should not pay for because
of his warranty. If you can read and follow instructions, you won’t
cause any damage and the manufacturer is bound to repair your vehicle
of any damage not caused by you.RE: The Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act
Federal law sets forth requirements for warranties and contains a
number of provisions to prevent vehicle manufacturers, dealers and
others from unjustly denying warranty coverage. With regard to
aftermarket parts, warranty coverage cannot be denied simply because
such parts are present on the vehicle. The warranty coverage cannot be
denied unless the aftermarket part is proven to have caused the
malfunction or damage.Magnuson Moss Warranty ActUS Code - Title 15,
Chapter 50, Sections 2301-2312 Legally, a vehicle manufacturer can not
void the warranty on a vehicle due to an aftermarket part unless they
can prove that the aftermarket part caused or contributed to the
failure in the vehicle (per the Magnuson Moss Warranty Act (15 U.S.C.
2302(C)). If your vehicle manufacturer fails to honor the warranty,
contact the FTC at (202) 326-3128 or www.ftc.gov .We will add more FAQ's as they come in, please come back soon.
