WaveNow/WaveNano Potentiostat: Cell Connection Port

Cell Port

The WaveNow USB Potentiostat is connected to an external electrochemical cell through a 15-pin cell port located on the side of the instrument. This port is a female HD-15 connector and has the same appearance as a VGA video connector on a personal computer.

Pine offers several products designed to mate with the cell port on the WaveNow USB Potentiostat:

  • WaveNow/WaveNano Shielded Cell Cable Kit (part number AKCABLE5)
  • WaveNow/WaveNano Student Cell Cable for use with the Student Voltammetry Cell (part number RRTPE04)
  • Universal Dummy Cell for troubleshooting the potentiostat (part number AB01DUM1)
  • WaveNow Universal Cell Cable Kit (part number AKCABLE3) (discontinued)

Note that some of the items listed above are sold separately.
