The Ossila C2012E1 is a 50 ml H-type sealed electrochemical cell made from borosilicate glass. It joins two half-cells in an H arrangement so the working and reference electrodes sit apart from the counter electrode, with the compartments divided by an ion-conductive membrane (membrane not supplied). Ions pass through the barrier while products generated at the anode and cathode stay apart, so each electrode reaction can be measured without interference from the other side.
Each half-cell is closed with a screw-fit PTFE lid and has feedthroughs for working, counter and reference electrodes, plus a gas inlet and outlet for degassing. A bubble filter on the gas inlet regulates gas entering the solution and limits gas shock and bubbling. The membrane seal is replaceable.
This 50 ml version also includes a Luggin capillary reference cell, which lets the reference electrode be positioned close to the working electrode. Each half-cell holds 50 ml when filled above the bridge and 65 ml when filled to the thread.
- Battery research where anode and cathode products must be kept separate.
- Testing of ion-conductive membranes between two electrolyte compartments.
- Permeation experiments across a membrane or physical barrier.
- CO2 reduction experiments with isolated working and counter electrodes.

The curved salt bridge tip of the Luggin capillary may deteriorate in strongly acidic or basic electrolytes; under such conditions, use the reference electrode directly without the Luggin capillary.
