"I have a problem with my cell. When the Cell
is powered Off, the water completely fills the cell. When the Cell is
powered ON, 1/4 of the water is going back into the Reservoir. The Cell
operates with only 3/4 of the portion of water. Is there a remedy for
this?. Will a hole in the middle of the plate solve the problem?" |

If you are
concerned with Current Leakage via the holes, there are a few things you
can do. You can use Sikaflex 291
to cover the exposed edges of the holes. But a better method is to just round
off the sharp edges, on both sides of the plates. Electron Flow is going
to take the Least path of resistance as it travels from negative towards
positive. The surface of the plate is a lot less Resistant,
electrically, than that of the electrolyte water. The problem is,
electrons have a hard time making sharp 90 degree turns. Round off those
sharp edges and you will reduce the problem. It also works on the plate
edges. Wet Cells are a lot more efficient if you round off the edges. |
