US Patent 7882728 Dual anomaly judgment device for a fuel cell

There is provided an anomaly judgment device that is capable of detecting an abnormal state of a system highly accurately and obtaining an accurate result. The anomaly judgment device may include a plurality of anomaly judgment devices for judging an anomaly of the system and, in cases where it is judged by the plurality of anomaly judgment devices that there is an anomaly, a judgment device judges that a system anomaly exists. Hence, even in the event of a localized abnormal state judgment by one anomaly judgment device or failure, a final judgment is not made based on that anomaly alone, and at least one other anomaly judgment is made, whereby erroneous judgments can be eliminated and a highly accurate anomaly judgment is possible.
