SKU: [WV10-RDE-E5] Category: Tags: ,

This bundle gets you started with a fixed-disk glassy carbon Rotating Disk Electrode (RDE) tip, a WaveVortex® electrode rotator, plus an electrochemical cell and accessories.

Every purchase of a Pine Research potentiostat and rotating electrode bundle includes a free one-hour online training session! Contact Pine Research now (click here) to learn more and to schedule your training session.

The compact WaveVortex 10 Electrode Rotator lets you get started immediately with RDE experiments, and then later, you can expand your research to include Rotating Ring-Disk Electrodes (RRDE). This RDE start-up bundle includes the following principal items:

  • WaveVortex 10 Electrode Rotator with Fixed-Disk Glassy Carbon RDE tip
  • Jacketed RDE Cell (glass) with Pt Counter and Ag/AgCl Reference Electrode
  • Materials and solutions for polishing electrodes

Description

This bundle includes an E5 series RDE tip with a glassy carbon disk permanently mounted in a PTFE shroud. As your research grows, you can expand your rotating electrode collection to include a wide variety of additional RDE and RRDE tip designs that are compatible with the WaveVortex 10 rotator.

MAXIMUM ROTATION RATE: Each electrode tip model used with the WaveVortex 10 rotator has a maximum rotation rate. Do not the exceed maximum rotation rate when working with rotating electrodes.

The WaveVortex 10 Electrode Rotator is designed to suit the needs of those looking to perform rotating disk (RDE) and rotating ring-disk (RRDE) electrode experiments with limited lab space.  This small footprint rotator is compatible with all 15 mm OD RDE/RRDE electrodes manufactured by Pine Research, along with many of our cells, glassware, and accessories.

The control box, motor, shaft, and enclosure are all fixed into one convenient unit, making the WaveVortex compact and portable.  The rotation rate can be manually adjusted on the front panel and monitored on the digital display.  Alternately, a potentiostat can control the rotation rate using an appropriate rate control cable.

Electrode connections are made to the rotating shaft using silver-carbon brushes.  There are two contacts – the red is for the disk, and the blue is for the ring.
