MUX8-R2 Multiplexer
Multiplexer for 8 up to 128 cells
- Automatically switch between electrochemical cells
- Easy stacking with magnetic feet and top
- 4 different electrode or sensor configurations
- Daisy chain multiplexers, up to 128 channels!
The PalmSens series and the EmStat4X can be used to work with multiple working electrodes or a sensor array by means of a multiplexer.
The multiplexer switches between the working electrodes in the range of milliseconds.
- each MUX8-R2 multiplexer enables to work with up to eight 2- or 3- electrode systems.
- daisy chaining multiple MUX8-R2 boards (expansion up to 128 channels)
- all hardware settings are controlled by the software making it unnecessary to flick a physical switch
- LEDs to show which channel is selected
- allows to connect auxiliary input (like temperature sensor)

Connection options
The most selected connection option uses two double shielded D-Sub cables ending in 2 mm banana plugs. As alternatives we can provide a PCB with screw terminals, D-Sub cable ending in ferrules or Screen Printed Electrode Adapter. Each of these cables can be connected to 4 channels, if all 8 channels are used, two cables are needed.

Mini *-ISE-L60.C* Miniature ion selective elecrodes
Read moreMiniature ion selective electrodes for potentiometric measurements of Chloride ions, Sodium ions, Calcium and Potassium ions concentration in aqueous solutions when used together with a reference electrode (following prior calibration) with a diameter of 6 mm and a length of 60 mm.
Specifically, these applications may include analyses for agricultural purposes, online monitoring of the representation of selected ions in water management, certain industrial areas or agriculture (hydroponic cultivation of plants) etc.
Electrodes are applicable to all commonly used measuring apparatus, with input resistance of at least 1012 Ω. The work with ion selective electrodes is time effective, requires an only small amount of chemicals, and a friendly price of measuring equipment (potentiostat with measuring method potentiometry).
Possibility of integration with a FC.1ISE.1REF Flow cell for single ion selective electrode with integrated stirring – possible automation and continuous measurement.
* For this product, we recommend our customers use the Training Service from BVT.
