A side-channel compressor (1) for a fuel cell system (37) for conveying and/or compressing a gas, in particular hydrogen, having a housing (3), having a compressor chamber (30) which is situated in the housing (3) and which has two encircling side channels (19, 21), having a compressor impeller (2) which is situated in the housing (3) and which is arranged so as to be rotatable about an axis of rotation (4), wherein the compressor impeller (2) has conveying cells (28) arranged at the circumference thereof and in the region of the compressor chamber (30), and having in each case one gas inlet opening (14) formed on the housing (3) and one gas outlet opening (16), which openings are fluidically connected to one another via the compressor chamber (30), in particular the two side channels (19, 21), and wherein, in the region of the compressor chamber (30), an encapsulation of the respective side channel (19, 21) is realized by at least one separation region (35) by means of a surface pairing of the compressor wheel (2) and of the housing (3). According to the invention, here, the at least one separation region (35) is formed by a surface pairing of the components compressor impeller (2) and housing (3) such that the respective one component has encircling edges (5), in particular with encircling tips (11), and the respective other component has an encircling, at least approximately planar counterpart surface (23).

A sealing ring gland receives a sealing ring. The sealing ring gland includes an inner wall surface which seals against an inner periphery of the sealing ring. An outer wall surface is radially offset from the inner wall surface and seals against an outer periphery of the sealing ring. The sealing ring is axially compressed between an upper wall surface and a lower wall surface of the sealing ring gland. At least one of the upper wall surface and the lower wall surface includes an expansion volume which provides space for the sealing ring to expand upon swelling of the sealing ring.

A side channel compressor for compressing gas includes a housing, which forms a side channel, and an impeller drive arranged in the housing. The housing forms a feed channel fluidically connected to the side channel for feeding gas to the side channel and a discharge channel for discharging gas out of the side channel that is fluidically connected to the side channel. The feed channel branches into two separate channel arms each extending along a channel arm center axis. The housing is subdivided along a separating plane into first and second housing parts which sealingly lie against one another. The discharge channel is passed through between the two channel arms and either a first or second discharge channel part of the discharge channel, opens out on a connecting surface of the first or second housing part forming a gas outlet opening arranged apart from the separating plane.
