EmStat4R
The EmStat4R delivers desktop performance in a rugged enclosure. The EmStat4R is a portable Battery or USB-powered Potentiostat, Galvanostat, and optional a Frequency Response Analyzer (FRA) for Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS).
The EmStat4R is great for applications that require low currents, from 30 mA down to picoamps, such as sensor applications. The EmStat4R is controlled with PSTrace for Windows, the Android app PStouch, or you can write your own MethodSCRIPT and control it from any platform or operating system.

EmStat4X
Read moreThe EmStat4X delivers high performance in a small footprint. The EmStat4X is a small battery and USB-powered Potentiostat, Galvanostat, and optional Frequency Response Analyser (FRA) for Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS).
The EmStat4X Low Range (LR) version is great for applications that require measuring low currents down to picoamps, like (bio)sensor research. The High Range (HR) version is very suitable for applications that need a maximum current of up to 200 mA. The EmStat4X is controlled with PSTrace for Windows, or you can write your own MethodSCRIPT and control it from any platform or operating system.
More information can be found through the link: https://www.palmsens.com/product/emstat4s/
The EmStat4X LR and HR features include:
- Fast EIS support: for running fixed-frequency EIS measurements at a very low interval of around 1 ms.
- Auxiliary Port: for connecting to a MUX8-R2 multiplexer, temperature sensor, pH sensor, stirrer control, triggering and more.
- iR compensation: to compensate for the iR drop between the Reference electrode and the outside of the double layer of the electrochemical cell.
- Bluetooth: for a wireless connection to a PC, smartphone or tablet
- 11.1 Wh battery: for more than 8 hours of continuous measurements (typical with the LR).
- Small borderless display: showing the state of the battery and connectivity.
Two versions
The EmStat4X comes in two different versions:
- Low Range: for lower currents and potentials (±30 mA / ±3 V applied / ±5 V compliance)
- High Range: for higher currents and potentials (±200 mA / ±6 V applied / ±8 V compliance)
Both versions can be configured with optional EIS/FRA up to 200 kHz.
See specifications for a detailed comparison between the LR and HR.Always a backup

MUX8-R2 Multiplexer
Read moreMultiplexer 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)
More information can be found through the link: https://www.palmsens.com/product/mux8-r2/
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.
