Electrochemical Cell kit [Specifications]
Click for larger image The 1 Litre Quickfit type Electrochemical Cell is supplied with the following: Sealed 1 Litre Reaction Vessel; Platinum Band Type Auxiliary Electrode; Saturated Calomel Reference Electrode; Reservoir; Lugging Probe with Tubing; Storage Bottle; Platinum Mains Noise Reduction Electrode; Retort Stand; 0-105°C Thermometer; Glass Frit; Exhaust and a two Electrode Probe. The retractable Probe fits in the centre of the cell and accommodates two standard 4.5cm2 screw on electrodes for galvanic C&V Noise or 2 Electrode LPR studies. The access hole in the centre of the cell which is normally used for the 2 Electrode Probe is supplied with an adapter for fitting of other probe types to suit your requirements. The adapter supplied with the Lugging Probe can be removed in order to directly place the reference electrode into the cell.

Noise Reduction Probe
Click for larger image Noise Reduction Probes can reduce mains signal polarisation of your test electrodes from as much as a few volts to just a few mV’s. The root cause of this problem is the different levels of mains pick up between the Reference Electrode and the Test Electrode. In a simple cell where the reference electrode is just a piece of metal immersed in the bulk test solution mains pick up is not generally a significant problem. The problem arises when the Reference Electrode is in its own separate solution. This is true for typical commercial Reference Electrodes and especially for any remote Reference Electrode connected to the cell via a salt bridge.
