Redox Flow - Model X-Cell -Electrolyser Test Cell

• Fast assembly
• Variable electrode thickness
• Many materials options
• Can be used as a general electrochemical flow cell

 The 9 cm² electrochemical flow cell for alkaline electrolysis consist of half cells made out PEEK or Titanium (Grade 1). The electrolyte gets in contact with the half cell material.

The PEEK version is intended for use with a bipolar plate (e.g. nickel or titanium) with any thickness >0.1-0.2 mm. A set of nickel bipolar plates/current collectors are coming with the cell, but they can be changed with own made materials. The Titanium version are intended for use where the electrolyser material/electrode is in direct contact with the half-cell material. Nonetheless, it can also be used with bipolar plates/current collectors. Depending on the configuration the cell voltage can be measured either on half cell block or bipolar plate material.

The X-cell also can be powered by the 8-channel battery tester. Also it can be connected with the Differential Pressure Unit that will allow measurement of pressure loss over cell and thereby electrode permeability. Also it can be connected with Flow Through Electrode Holder for e.g. inline monitoring of pH, ORP, reference, conductivity or any other electrode. Signals from pressure sensors and electrodes can be recorded in AUX Unit, which combined form an extremely powerful tool for both basic electrolyser research and optimisation studies.
