A “dummy cell” is a simple circuit consisting of resistors and/or capacitors that can be used to test the behavior of a potentiostat. Pine Research includes a dummy cell with each potentiostat. A dummy cell is a useful diagnostic tool. When you struggle to acquire the data you expect and suspect an instrument issue, testing the experiment with across a dummy cell helps remove the complications of cell cable, electrodes, and chemistry from the measurement. The dummy cell is designed to be directly attached to the workstation HD-15 cell port. It can be used in any WaveNano series electrochemical workstation.
