Description
This cell cable is typically used to connect a WaveDriver series potentiostat to an Pine Research Screen-Printed Electrode Cell. This cable is designed for those cases where all three electrodes (working, counter, and reference) are part of the screen-printed electrode.
One end of this cable has a D-shell connector which connects to the cell port on the WaveDriver potentiostat. The other end of the cable terminates at both a mini-USB style plug. The mini-USB plug contains the working, counter and reference electrode connections.
When used with a Screen-Printed Electrode Cell, connection to the counter and working electrodes located on the screen-printed electrode (SPE) is via the mini-USB plug. The connection to the reference electrode is also made via the mini-USB plug, and the reference electrode is typically a silver/silver-chloride ink spot that has been screen-printed on to the SPE itself.
This cable is very rarely used with a Honeycomb Spectroelectrochemistry Cell, but if it is used in this manner, then the reference electrode is connected to a spot on the Honeycomb Electrode card. Typically, this spot is NOT coated with silver/silver-chloride, so this cable is not recommended for use with spectroelectrochemistry cells.
