Hi Andrew-
The "flow through" feature is very useful for cleaning the cell without 
disassembly. There is no big advantage with them for matching menisci- 
very slight differences in the sectors will lead to mismatches in the 
menisci, even if exactly the same amount of fluid is put in them. Use 
Walter's design for matching menisci. The Stafford centerpieces are 
available (as variants of the SedVel60K) from Spin Analytical 
(www.spinanalytical.org or www.spinanalytical.com).
Best wishes,
Tom Laue
