The absolutely sealed straight five-port cell is designed for oxygen- and moisture-sensitive measurements. The electrodes plug into socket connections inside the stainless-steel lid, so no air enters through the electrode feedthroughs.

Gas purging and vacuum are done through two valves on the lid; the valve connected to the sparger is the inlet. A sintered salt bridge or Luggin capillary cannot be added to this cell; a matching Ag/AgCl electrode is used as the reference (manufacturer data). For pressurized operation the cell bottom must be round.

In the absolutely sealed cell the electrodes plug into socket (jack) connections inside the lid, isolating the system completely from the outside. With valves fitted, the cell can be evacuated (below −100 kPa) or operated under slight pressure (max. 0.5 MPa, manufacturer data). The electrodes are made to fit this cell and must be ordered together with it.

The body is made of borosilicate glass 3.3, which has low thermal expansion (3.3 × 10⁻⁶ K⁻¹) and the highest resistance classes against water (HGB 1) and acids (S 1). Avoid sudden temperature differences above 120 °C to reduce the risk of breakage.

The single-layer body is a simple, economical choice for routine measurements at room temperature. If temperature control is needed, choose the jacketed version of the same cell.
