BluRev RDE/RRDE
Steady as you go with BluRev
BluRev’s powerful, high-precision rotating (ring) disk electrodes and controllers are versatile scientific instruments, vital to any experiment demanding a detailed understanding of electrochemical reactions in steady-state conditions.
These modular research instruments demonstrate excellent levels of accuracy, particularly at high rotation rates, and are the only devices on the market to display both target and actual rates of rotation – data that can greatly assist users during experiments by enabling them to monitor rotation rates in real-time.
Driven by EC-Lab software, an industry standard for potentiostat control software, BluRev instruments can be used independently or as part of an integrated setup, where the end-user controls each element of his experiment remotely with total ease. The RC-10k unit which controls BluRev instruments offers an accuracy of ±1 rpm over the whole rotational range for precise and fully reproducible experimental conditions.
The measured rotation speed is clearly displayed on a five-digit LCD screen. The speed can be set manually or by using the analog output of a BioLogic instrument for example. Any other device with an analog output can be used. Using EC‑Lab®, you can easily program and perform a Levich experiment all in one go, and also use the new EIS element Winf that will directly give you the diffusion coefficient.
Rotating Ring Disk Electrode Version (RRDE)
The addition of a concentric ring to the rotating disk electrode, allows the user to collect species that are produced on the disk. Homogeneous bulk reactions of intermediate species produced at the disk can be studied by comparing experimental data to theoretical terms. Major applications for RRDE instruments include: fuel cells, hydrogen production, depollution, electrochemical sensing
Compability
BluRev RDE/RRDE are compatible with a wide range of cells – in particular the EL-ELECTRO-1, EL-ELECTRO-2 or EL-ELECTRO-3 kits.
Please note: if you already possess one of these cells, you will need a special compatible cap: 094-A-CAP. Otherwise, we recommend a new EL-ELECTRO-1 kit that includes the compatible EL-BLUREV.

Please also note that the BluRev RDE/RRDE is compatible with the EL-ELECTRO-1/2/3 kit glassware. If you already have a kit, please make sure you purchase a compatible cap: 094-A-CAP. Otherwise, you can purchase an EL-ELECTRO-1 kit with the 094-A-CAP already included: EL-BLUREV. Look at the Blurev Enclosure to complete your experiment set-up. The BluRev Enclosure has been designed to perfectly fit the BluRev RDE/RRDE, and hold cells and cables for a perfect user-experience.
