Why Use An HHO Pulse Width Modulator
September 20th, 2008 by admin
There is only one reason that you use a pulse width modulator. That is to control current draw to avoid overheating your generator and blowing fuses. With the larger hho generators you can run into a thermal runaway problem.
The more they heat up then the more current they draw. The more current they draw then the more they heat up. When this starts happening then you will have to get it under control some kind of way. The best way to do this is by using a HHO Pulse Width Modulator.
The pulse width modulator (PWM) will limit how much current is available to the generator and prevent the thermal runaway problem. If you are frequently blowing your fuses then you probably need to add one of these in. If your generator gets to hot you can also damage your generator itself and end up either buying or building another one.
