EmStat4 MUX (2-in-1: Potentiostat with integrated multiplexer)

Gone 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.

  • 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.

  • Hanging Platinum Drop Electrode

    The Hanging Platinum Drop Electrode (HPDE) is solid phase alanogy of HMDE.

     

    The drop of liquid Pt at 2000 °C forms a drop of Pt. The surface of HPDE has nearly ideal surface which is impossible to obtain using polishing. HPDE has also spherical symmetry which enables mathematical treatment of its response.
    The material is not toxic and it is chemically stable. The only disadvantage is HPDE cleaning, which can be, however, in some cases solved by carefull insertion of the electrode tip to the flame of an alcohol burner.
    Thus HPDE can be used as reference electrode for complicated electrochemical studies, where it is necessary to distinguish the analytical signal from the signal generated by surface inhomogenities.

     

    Hanging platinum drop electrode (HPDE) is designed for measurements with thermostated cell TC4, TC5, TC6 and TC9.

    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.

  • 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.
