Activation furnance for electrochemical sensors

The activation furnance is a device used for curing individual sensors of the AC1 type. At a defined temperature (up to 1000 °C) depending on the electrode and sensor materials. When the sensor is cured, the surface of the electrodes is cleaned from surface oxides and organic impurities, which results in regeneration of the sensor or its activation. In this way, for example, old sensors with immobilized enzyme layers can be cured for reuse – see example at the end ot the document.

    Versatile

    Our high-end instrument, the Nexus, is a Potentiostat, Galvanostat, and optional a Frequency Response Analyser (FRA) for Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS). The Nexus has a large potential range (-12V to +12V) and current range (100 pA to 1 A) with a high resolution and low noise.

    The research software PSTrace makes using the Nexus a breeze. The scripting language MethodSCRIPT gives a user full control when needed. Looking for a multi-channel instrument? Just stack multiple instruments on top of each other.

    Configurable

    Nexus comes in different configurations:

    • optional EIS/FRA module with maximum frequency of 1 MHz
    • optional BiPotentiostat module for second WE

    Standard included

    S2 and BiPot

    Nexus includes a Second Sense lead (S2) and an optional BiPotentiostat (BiPot) module.

    S2 – Additional voltage (potential) measurement point

    BiPot – Independent second working electrode for simultaneous current measurement

    These two features are independent and serve distinct purposes:

    • S2 (Second Sense Lead)
      S2 acts as an additional voltage-sensing input, with the same specifications as the main reference electrode. It measures the potential at a specific point in the cell and, because the current at that point is known, it can also be used to calculate impedance.
    • BiPot (BiPotentiostat Module)
      The BiPot module introduces a second working electrode (WE2), operating versus the same reference and counter electrodes as the main channel. In BiPotentiostat mode, both working electrodes (WE1 and WE2) are recorded simultaneously. WE2 operates in potentiostatic mode, meaning it can independently control its potential and measure its current.

  • EmStat4T (Tailored electrochemistry through touch-controlled apps)

    The EmStat4T is a programmable handheld potentiostat with a touchscreen, which is ideal for sensor research and sensor-based applications. It offers two main modes of operation:

     

    1. Remote Control: where it functions as a conventional potentiostat, controlled directly by our PSTrace software for Windows or PStouch app for Android. These applications allow you to run measurements, view results, and perform data analysis.

     

    1. Standalone: where the instrument is controlled via its touch interface to run a wizard‑style app for electrochemical analysis. Compose custom apps easily using the Visual MethodSCRIPT Editor included in PSTrace for Windows. Apps eliminate the need for a computer, tablet, or smartphone. This makes the EmStat4T an ideal solution for point-of-care applications and field research such as environmental analysis or corrosion monitoring.

  • Silver / Silver Chloride Refillable Reference Electrode – 6 mm dia. (redox.me)

    It is a compact refillable Ag/AgCl reference electrode equipped with ceramic frit molten into the glass body. This electrode outperforms competing products in terms of mechanical stability, voltage stability and lifetime. In general, the reference electrode is composed of a system of phases, which retain an essentially constant composition, and therefore provides a stable potential by which the working electrode potential can be monitored. The phases present in reference electrodes undergo reversible redox processes at a very high rate, enabling them to rapidly adjust to changes in the solution’s ionic activity, but leaving them sensitive to the passage of large current densities. 

     

    Application note
    This electrode is commonly used with aqueous acidic electrolytes, but due to the low resistance of the frit it can be used with standard non-aqueous electrolytes, as well. The reference electrode should be stored with the rubber plug applied on the tip. Please see the full instruction here. Keeping in the solution may shorten its lifetime (the electrode operates well as long as there is at least ¼ of the solution in the electrode tube). Before use rinse it with deionized water. If air bubbles are present around the porous frit, flick the tip several times to remove them. For cleaning use detergent (dish washing detergent with water), alcohols or acetone and rinse it with deionized water at the end. To re-fill the electrode please follow this article.
