This WaveDriver® 40 Electrochemical Workstation is a versatile, dual-electrode, research-grade, performance-driven system with potentiostat, galvanostat, open-circuit potential, and zero resistance ammeter modes of operation. It is engineered to provide the essential hardware and software features you need at an affordable price. This system finds use with stationary electrodes, rotating disk (RDE), rotating ring-disk (RRDE), and rotating cylinder (RCE) electrodes.
Under the control of our powerful AfterMath® Blue software package, the WaveDriver 40 supports a wide range of DC electroanalytical techniques. It offers current ranges up to ±1 A, potential ranges up to ±15 V, advanced inputs/outputs, waveform filters, and iR compensation.
The WaveDriver 40 is a true integrated bipotentiostat, capable of controlling one or two working electrodes operating in the same electrochemical cell along with a counter and reference electrode, making this instrument ideal for Rotating Ring-Disk Electrode (RRDE) voltammetry. This workstation is a trusted companion to our popular electrode rotators, including our latest evoLUTION, the MSR evo Electrode Rotator.

Tip: Product Similarity
The WaveDriver 100 is a single channel electrochemical workstation with EIS, whereas the WaveDriver 200 is a two-channel bipotentiostat electrochemical workstation with EIS. The WaveDriver 40 does not have EIS, and is a two-channel bipotentiostat. Other specifications are shared among all current models of the WaveDriver Series.

AfterMath Blue – Data Acquisition, Analysis, and Organization Software
Licenses for our AfterMath® Blue software are included with the purchase of an Electrochemical Workstation. The licenses give you access to all of the DC methods that the WaveDriver 40 can perform. Pine Research does not charge extra for various categories of electrochemical techniques. If the instrument is capable of a method, you have access to it (no hidden costs). Here are some unique features of AfterMath Blue:
- Instrument Control. When started, AfterMath automatically detects all compatible instrumentation attached to the computer and provides complete control over each instrument. It can simultaneously control multiple instruments and queue multiple experiments.
- Flexible Plotting. AfterMath offers a powerful “drag-n-drop” feature for quickly copying and moving traces between plots, with precise control over various plot settings.
- Scientific Units. Designed with scientific data in mind, AfterMath properly handles units, metric prefixes, and significant figures.
- Data Archiving. A unique XML-based file format allows multiple related experiments to be stored in a single archive file, simplifying file management.
- Tools and Transforms. Flexible tools allow precise measurement of quantities like peak height and area, with fundamental mathematical operations available on any trace.
