Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0227835A2] The invention relates to a method for operating a fuel cell arrangement and to a fuel cell arrangement for carrying out the method. A fuel cell arrangement (1) comprising a number of fuel cells that are located in a protective housing (4) is to be operated with a high degree of operating reliability and a particularly long service life. To this end, at least a proportion of the gas that is located in the inner area (6) enclosed by the protective housing (4)is guided out of the inner area (6) and replaced with fresh gas.
