757 VA Computrace – Hardware

1 Introduction

1.1 Instrument

description

757 VA Computrace is a PC-controlled system for voltammetry, which consists of

the following parts:

1.757.0010

VA Computrace Stand

with accessories

6.5326.000

VA Computrace Interface

6.2135.010

Connecting Cable

6.6032.100

VA Computrace Software 2.0

For a detailed description of the PC software

VA Computrace 2.0

see the

757

Software Manual

This

757 Hardware Manual

describes the installation and maintenance of the 757

VA Computrace Stand and its accessories. The central element of this Stand is the

multi-mode electrode (MME), which combines the dropping mercury electrode

(DME/SMDE) and the stationary hanging mercury drop electrode (HMDE) in a sin-

gle construction. The rotating disk electrode (RDE) can also be used in the stand.

The parameters necessary for the VA measurement are sent from the PC to the VA

Computrace Interface via USB connection. The data acquisition at the 757 VA

Computrace Stand is started and controlled by the VA Computrace Interface, which

receives and stores the measurement data. At the end of the determination, the re-

corded data are sent back to the PC where they are evaluated and saved in a de-

termination file.

Operation of the 757 VA Computrace Stand follows the potentiostatic 3-electrode

principle in which the voltage of the working electrode is controlled by means of a

virtually currentless reference electrode to the preset desired value and the current

flows across a separate auxiliary electrode.
