AmazonCHI Electrochemical Workstation Electrode Cable
Multi-lead electrode cable for CHI electrochemical workstations, connecting the working electrode, auxiliary electrode, reference electrode, and sensing terminal.
Product Overview
The CHI electrochemical workstation electrode cable uses different colors to identify each functional terminal, making it easier to recognize and connect electrodes correctly during electrochemical experiments. It supports standard three-electrode systems and can also be used with a second working electrode or sensing lead when required.
Suitable for cyclic voltammetry, linear sweep, chronoamperometry, chronopotentiometry, electrochemical impedance, corrosion testing, and related experiments. Confirm the workstation model, interface type, and cable length before use.
Connection reminder: Turn off workstation output first, then connect each electrode according to its color and function to avoid abnormal testing.
Five Connector Functions
GreenWorking Electrode 1
RedAuxiliary Electrode
WhiteReference Electrode
BlackSensing Lead for Higher Voltage
YellowWorking Electrode 2
Standard three-electrode testing normally uses the green, red, and white connectors. Use the black sensing lead and yellow second working-electrode lead according to the test method and instrument instructions.
Connection Method
- Turn off the electrochemical workstation output and confirm that the instrument is in a safe state.
- Connect the main cable connector to the corresponding port on the CHI electrochemical workstation.
- Connect green to Working Electrode 1, red to the Auxiliary Electrode, and white to the Reference Electrode.
- Connect the black sensing lead when the test voltage is high or the instrument method requires it.
- Connect the yellow lead to Working Electrode 2 for dual-working-electrode testing.
- Check that all connectors are secure and that there is no short circuit before starting the test program.
Applications
- Cyclic voltammetry, linear sweep, and potential-step testing.
- Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and AC signal testing.
- Metal corrosion, battery materials, and electrocatalysis research.
- University teaching laboratories, research platforms, and materials testing.
- Dual-working-electrode and special potential measurement experiments.
Maintenance and Precautions
- Do not repeatedly connect or disconnect the electrode cable while energized.
- Keep connectors away from electrolytes, acidic or alkaline solutions, and other corrosive liquids.
- Hold the connector housing when unplugging. Do not pull the cable itself.
- Avoid prolonged bending, compression, crushing by heavy objects, and high-temperature environments.
- Before testing, confirm that the working, auxiliary, and reference electrodes are connected correctly.
- The black sensing lead and yellow second working-electrode lead are not required for every experiment.
- When not in use for an extended period, coil the cable neatly and store it in a dry, light-protected environment.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many leads are needed for a standard three-electrode test?
Normally connect the green Working Electrode 1, red Auxiliary Electrode, and white Reference Electrode.
When should the black sensing lead be used?
Connect it when the test voltage is high or the test method explicitly requires a sensing lead. It is generally unnecessary for routine tests.
What is the yellow connector used for?
The yellow connector is for Working Electrode 2 in special experiments requiring two working electrodes. It is generally not used in standard testing.
Can CHI660E and CHI760E cables be used interchangeably?
Select the cable according to the workstation interface and instrument model. Confirm the workstation model before purchase.
