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

Carrying padded bag containing:

  • High quality, double shielded cell cable with
    2 mm banana connectors for Working, Sense, Counter, Reference electrode and Ground
  • Chassis ground cable with croc clip (4 mm)
  • Hardware Sync Link cable
  • Crocodile clips
  • Calibration report
  • Dummy cell
  • USB cable and Ethernet cable
  • Manual and Quick Start document
  • PSTrace software for Windows
  • iR-compensation (ohmic drop compensation) module
  • Second Sense lead cable
 

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.

  • 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.
