An electrochemical storage cell includes a pot-shaped solid electrolyte, inside of which an anode space is disposed. The storage cell is bounded by a metallic housing. A cathode space is disposed between the solid electrolyte and the housing. The pressure in the cathode space is held at a higher level than in the anode space in order to prevent destruction of the storage cell in the event of a rupture of the solid electrolyte.

Electrochemical storage cell

Electrochemical storage cell of the sodium and sulfur type with an anode space and a cathode space which are separated from each other by a solid electrolyte and are bounded, at least in some regions, by a metallic housing. The cathode space contains the sulfur electrode which is made of a sulfur-impregnated graphite or carbon fiber material and the cathode space is subdivided into at least two and preferably more sectors which are separated from each other at least in some regions.
