The proposed solution includes two primary subsystems: a hardware subsystem dedicated to data acquisition (DAQ) and a software subsystem focused on monitoring purposes. The DAQ subsystem utilizes an Arduino platform, being an affordable and open-source solution. The real-time monitoring data can be encoded in JSON format, widely used as a light-weight inter-exchange data format between a variety of IoT applications. They are also available to be transferred to Excel. Indeed, and to enhance convenience, the proposed system integrates graphs displaying a template based on Excel spreadsheets, which are commonly used in industrial environments. The current, voltage, temperature, and pressure data of both individual cells and stacks were monitored and collected, being configurable under a variety of ranges. As a case study, the validation of the system involved static and dynamic operational modes using a 1.2 kW PEM electrolyzer prototype (100 A, 1 A/cm<inline-formula>2</inline-formula>). The results successfully provided the monitored variables across individual cells and within the stack. The proposed approach exhibits relevant key characteristics such as scalability, flexibility, user-friendliness, versatility, and affordability and are suitable to monitor PEM electrolyzers in real-time at both the cell and stack levels.
