ELECTROCHEMICAL CELL WITH PROTECTOR GASKET ARRANGEMENT

摘要

An electrochemical cell is provided. The electrochemical cell includes a first frame, the frame having at least one first cleat feature arranged on one side, the at least one first cleat feature having a first height. A second frame is provided having at least one second cleat feature arranged on one side, the at least one second cleat feature having a second height. A membrane electrode assembly (MEA) is disposed between the first and second frame, the MEA having a first electrode disposed on a first side of a membrane and a second electrode disposed on a second side opposite the first electrode. A first gasket is disposed between the membrane and the first frame, the first gasket engaging the at least one first cleat feature. A second gasket is disposed between the membrane and the second frame, the second gasket engaging the at least one second cleat feature.
