YT01 Swagelok Dual-Electrode Mold

Name: YT01 Swagelok Dual-Electrode Mold

Mold Type: Swagelok-Style Dual-Electrode Test Cell (Two Versions: TH with Spring or CG Standard)

Product Code: XN-BM-YT01

Description:

The YT01 is a Swagelok-style dual-electrode test cell engineered for electrochemical research and battery testing. The YT01 is available in two versions: YT01 TH, which features an integrated internal spring, and YT01 CG, the standard version without spring. Both versions feature PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) housing. The cell is built with PTFE and copper, supports a working pressure of 10 MPa, an assembly height of 99 mm, an inner diameter dimension of 10–20 mm, and operating conditions ≤ 200 °C. The YT01 ships with a choice of three electrode materials: titanium alloy, pure titanium, or high-purity molybdenum. Can be customized and modified as required.

Application:

The YT01 is designed for laboratory electrochemical research and battery testing. The Swagelok-style cell architecture is widely used for two-electrode electrochemistry research, including impedance spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry, galvanostatic cycling, and other standard electrochemical measurement techniques. Specific application requirements should be evaluated based on the chosen version (TH with spring, or CG standard) and the selected electrode material.

Characteristics:

Two versions: TH with spring and CG standard

The YT01 is offered in two versions. The TH version includes an integrated internal spring within the PTFE housing, while the CG version is the standard configuration without spring. Both versions share identical PTFE housing, working pressure (10 MPa), assembly height (99 mm), inner diameter range (10–20 mm), and operating temperature limit (≤ 200 °C).

PTFE housing for chemical inertness

Both YT01 versions feature PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) housing. PTFE is a fluoropolymer known for its high chemical inertness against a wide range of chemicals, including organic solvents, aqueous electrolytes, acids, and bases.

Swagelok-style cell architecture

The YT01 follows the Swagelok-style cell convention — a standardized cylindrical assembly used in laboratory electrochemistry research. The Swagelok-style design provides cell components that connect via threaded fittings.

Three electrode material options

The YT01 ships with a choice of three electrode materials: titanium alloy, pure titanium, or high-purity molybdenum. The selection is made by the customer based on their specific research application.

Working pressure of 10 MPa

The YT01 is rated for a working pressure of 10 MPa.

Operating temperature ≤ 200 °C

The operating temperature limit of the YT01 is ≤ 200 °C.

Customization available on request

The YT01 can be customized and modified as required. Contact Xnergy for configuration options that match your specific research requirements.

Recommended Operating Procedure:

1. Clean all components (PTFE housing, copper components, electrode columns, internal spring if YT01 TH) with isopropyl alcohol or other suitable cleaning solvent before each use; dry thoroughly. 2. Select the desired version (TH with spring, or CG standard) and electrode material (titanium alloy, pure titanium, or high-purity molybdenum). 3. Assemble the cell components, including the bottom electrode column, separator, electrolyte, and top electrode column, in their designated positions. 4. For YT01 TH: ensure the internal spring is correctly seated. 5. Tighten the Swagelok-style fittings; do not exceed the rated working pressure of 10 MPa. 6. Connect the cell electrodes to the cycling tester or potentiostat. 7. Operate within the specified temperature limit of ≤ 200 °C. 8. After testing, allow the cell to cool to room temperature, release pressure gradually, drain electrolyte safely, and clean all components before storage.

Packaging & Storage:

The YT01 ships with all components, including the PTFE housing (with internal spring if YT01 TH version), copper components, selected electrode columns (titanium alloy, pure titanium, or high-purity molybdenum), Swagelok-style fittings, and assembly hardware. Store in a dry environment at room temperature, protected from dust and chemical exposure. After each use, clean wetted-surface components, dry thoroughly, and inspect the internal spring (TH version) for any signs of damage before storage.

Safety:

For research and industrial laboratory use only. Do not exceed the maximum working pressure (10 MPa) or operating temperature (200 °C). Always wear appropriate PPE (safety glasses, chemical-resistant gloves, lab coat) when handling electrolytes. For elevated-temperature operation, allow the cell to cool to room temperature before any disassembly. When working with reactive materials, follow standard laboratory safety protocols, including glovebox-based assembly when required. For the YT01 TH version, take care during disassembly to release spring tension gradually. Refer to the included user manual for complete safety and operating instructions.

Note: Specifications listed above are typical and for reference only. Actual performance and chemical compatibility depend on the specific electrolyte, electrode material, and version selection (TH or CG) — consult published literature for guidance on specific Swagelok-cell electrochemistry protocols.
