The CE link module enables the combination of 2 or more Ivium potentiostats in a single cell with shared counter electrode without galvanic isolation.
Placing the CE link between potentiostat and cell avoids the need for floating operation of one (or more) of the channels. This avoids the risk of high common mode voltages, or “noise” by enabling channels to be grounded to the same point. This results in reduced noise, and better low current performance (not influenced by capacitive AC-coupling which is common in floating operation and can exhibit itself as an apparent dc leakage current).
