Basic Sample Holder – metal contact, 4 mm max. thickness (redox.me)
Basic Sample Holder with a metal contact works as an electrical conductor between an electrode material (free-standing or deposited on a substrate) and an external circuit. This holder consists of PEEK body, pure Tantalum, Stainless Steel 316L, Titanium, Copper or Nickel metal electrical contact, and PEEK screw to fix the electrode. It is compatible with most of inorganic and organic based plates, free-standing membranes or thin films deposited on flexible and rigid substrates. A maximum thickness of the sample is 4 mm. Tantalum is known to be inert to practically all organic and inorganic compounds. Tantalum’s corrosion resistance is very similar to that of glass, as both are unsuitable for use in hydrofluoric acid and strong hot alkali applications. Therefore, in those cases, we recommend the other wire contact variant. The metal contact can be fully immersed in the electrolyte.
Application note
Generally, the electrode is fabricated by fixing the electrochemical active sample into the holder using a screw. Such electrode is immersed in the ion-conducting solution as a working electrode or counter electrode. An electric current is passed between the working electrode and the counter electrode for a certain amount of time. Metal wire contact is permanently installed in the PEEK body. The holder is designed to be used multiple times. The holder should be cleaned prior to the installation of electrode material.

AC1.GP. Electrochemical sensor with a working electrode of guaranteed purity
Read moreBasic amperometric three-electrode sensor with patented structure made by thick film technology.
Dimensions: 25.40 mm x 7.26 mm x 0.63 mm
WE material: gold, platinum, silver, copper, iron, nickel, cobalt, chromium, tantalum, irridium, rhenium, magnesium, palladium, zirconium and others
*Selection of sensor electrode materials other than those listed above is possible upon agreement with the customer.
The sensor is made on a corundum ceramic base. Working, reference and auxiliary electrodes are applied to this surface. Working, reference and auxiliary electrodes are made of different materials. At the end of the sensor there is a contact field that is connected to the active part by silver conductive paths that are covered with a dielectric protective layer. The working electrode of the sensor with a diameter of 2 mm is made of a material of guaranteed purity of up to 99.99 % depending on the selected material– standard layer thickness 0.0125 mm.
We also offer a working electrode made of polished gold AC1P.W*.R*, with homogenous surface with roughness less than 1 µm.
We also offer activated graphite sensors on customer request.

EmStat4 MUX (2-in-1: Potentiostat with integrated multiplexer)
Read moreGone are the days with too many cables. With the EmStat4 MUX you have a potentiostat and a multiplexer in one! The EmStat4 MUX is a powerful potentiostat, galvanostat and impedance analyzer and supports all popular electrochemical techniques. Its 8 channels allow for sequential measurements, for example eight Screen-printed electrodes, or eight working electrodes in eight different cells. The instrument’s measurements can be highly customized using MethodSCRIPT. The 4 different cell connections available allow for many different setups. When the measurements are finished, you can easily save your results in PSTrace, or export your results to Excel.
More information could be found tought link:
https://www.palmsens.com/product/emstat4-mux/
- Integrated 8-channel multiplexer
- Supports 2-, 3- and 4-electrode setup using Sense Lead
- Potential range: ± 3V
- Compliance voltage: ± 5V
- Current ranges: 1 nA – 10 mA
- Maximum current: ± 30 mA
- FRA / EIS up to 200 kHz
Two modes of operation
- Consecutive mode: this mode switches channel when a complete measurement has finished
- Alternate mode: this mode switches all activated channels within the specified time interval of a measurement.
In both modes the unselected Working Electrodes can either be left floating or switched to Ground to keep the specified voltage.
Supports a 2-, 3- or 4-electrode setup
- Connect four electrodes per channel by using the Sense Leads.
- Or connect only three electrodes per channel by internally connecting all Sense electrodes to the Working Electodes in software.
- Do you need to connect only two electrodes per channel? Combine the reference and counter electrode physically on the cable, or with a single click on the PSTrace software.
8 to 128 channels
Is 8 channels not enough? If more channels are required, one or more MUX-R2 can be stacked to the EmStat4 MUX for a total of up to 128 channels.
Script your experiments!
Via the script window of PSTrace it is possible to perform a different experiment on each of the channels sequentially. Alternatively, you can use MethodSCRIPT to fully customize your measurements per channel.
Multichannel or Multiplexer?
To make it easier for you to decide, if a multiplexer or a multichannel device is more suitable for your application, we have created a short explanation of multiplexers and multichannels.

8/16-Channel Potentiostat for High Resolution Data Logger
Read moreThe device consists of a combination of an multi-channel potentiostat/converter (BVT Technologies) and an external USB Pico ADC high resolution data logger (Pico Technology).
The data logger can be supplied in two versions: ADC-20 (20 bits, 8 channels) or ADC-24 (24 bits, 16 channels). For detailed specifications, see the attachment at the end of the document. The device allows measurements from up to 8 or from up to 16 independent channels. The basic output signal is a voltage in the range of -2.5 to 2.5 V. All channels are programmable (the output can be concentration, temperature, pressure…).
After connecting the device to a PC with Pico Technology’s Picolog 6 measurement program installed, the voltage [V] can be processed using math channels and directly recorded in real time as temperature, current, resistance, frequency, % and pressure, see measurement example at the end of the document.
For temperature measurement, the device is compatible with resistance thermometers (Ni 1000, Ni 5000, Pt 1000. Power is provided via USB-B, the maximum electrical consumption of the device is 500 mA.
Device Usage
- Temperature measurement with different temperature sensor (resistance thermometers Ni 1000, ni 5000, Pt 1000)
- Voltage measurement
- Conductivity and resistance measurement
- Amperometry measurement
