<p>An electrolytic cell includes at least a first and a second, generally planar, membrane-supporting frame (102,104) each having a plurality of through-holes (120,122,124,126). Each is sealed to a plurality of annular coupling members (146,148) located between the frames (102,104) and generally aligned with a respective through-hole (120,122,124,126) of each frame (102,104) to thereby define a plurality of sealed conduits through the frames. Each coupling member (146,148) is attached in a sealed relationship to the first frame (102) by a number of bolts (150) passing through oversized holes (136) in the first frame (102) so as to be capable of movement parallel to the plane of the first frame (102) during assembly of the cell and is sealed to the second frame (104) at a cylindrical interface which provides sealing at a range of distances between the first and second frames (102,104). This construction reduces the manufacturing tolerances required for the cell components. <IMAGE> <IMAGE></p> |
