Separator plate

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a separator plate separator plate for an electrochemical system, comprising a bead arrangement and at least one conduit channel for directing a fluid, wherein the conduit channel connects to the bead arrangement and is fluidically connected to a bead interior of the bead arrangement, and has a channel roof, a channel base and two channel flanks extending between the channel roof and the channel base, wherein a base width of the channel base, determined parallel to the plane of the separator plate, increases towards the bead arrangement at least in a section of the conduit channel, while a channel roof width of the channel roof, determined parallel to the plane of the separator plate, decreases towards the bead arrangement in said section, so that a cross-sectional shape of the conduit channel changes.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
