3M Corporation Orders VIASPACE Humidity Sensor. PASADENA, Calif., - VIASPACE Inc. a company that transforms proven space and defense technologies from NASA and the Department of Defense into hardware and software solutions, announced today that it has delivered one of its patent pending VIASENSOR HS-1000 Humidity Sensors to 3M Corporation. The performance of hydrogen fuel cells using a Polymer Electrolyte Membrane (PEM) depends on the moisture level of the membrane. The membrane only conducts protons when it is hydrated or moist. The moisture is provided by water vapor in the incoming air or hydrogen stream. The VIASENSOR HS-1000 humidity instrument provides real-time measurements of the amount of water vapor in these gas streams ...
