1WaveDriver Single Channel Potentiostat Cell Cable

The WaveDriver Single Channel Potentiostat Cell Cable (Pine Research part number ACP5E01) WaveDriver Potentiostat Cell Cable is used with the WaveDriver 100 WaveDriver 100 EIS Potentiostat/Galvanostat model.
 
Using this cell cable, connections can be made to simple two-terminal cells (such as batteries, fuel cells, solar cells, amperometry sensors, capacitors, resistors, and inductors), compact voltammetry cells, and traditional three-electrode voltammetry cells (including those which contain a rotating disk electrode or a rotating cylinder electrode).

1.1Color Description

The WaveDriver Single Channel Potentiostat Cell Cable breaks out the instrument cell port connections to four shielded coaxial lines and one unshielded line (the GRAY instrument chassis line).  The shielded coaxial lines terminate in banana plugs that are designed to be stacked as needed and directly connected to electrodes.  Alligator clips that slide onto the banana plugs are included.  A tabular summary of the color code for these lines is provided (see Table 1).

WHITE Reference Electrode REF Sense
GREEN Counter Electrode CTR Drive
GRAY Instrument Chassis Ground
RED Primary Working Electrode (K1) WK1 Drive
ORANGE Primary Working Electrode (K1) Sense

1.2Cable Pinout

NOTE: The high input impedance SENSE lines carry only very small currents during normal operation.  Each of these SENSE lines is terminated with a resistor embedded within the banana plug at the end of the cable.
