PalmSens4

The PalmSens4, is a USB and battery powered Potentiostat, Galvanostat, and optional a Frequency Response Analyser (FRA) for Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS).

Compact, versatile and powerful

(Bi)Potentiostat / Galvanostat / Impedance Analyzer
FRA / EIS: 10 μHz up to 1 MHz
9 current ranges: 100 pA to 10 mA

Two versions:

Sensit BT.SPE		Sensit BT.SNS

Sensor pitch	2.54 mm	Cable length	40 cm
Electrode connections	RE, WE, CE	Connectors	2 mm banana
Allowed sensor thickness	Between 0.1 mm and 0.8 mm	Electrode connections	RE, WE, WE2, CE
Maximum sensor width	11 mm

Dual-channel and Bipotentiostat

The Sensit BT.SPE can be used for running sequential measurements on two different Screen-Printed Electrodes (SPE’s) each with their own Reference, Counter and Working electrodes.

The second channel can also be used in Bipotentiostat mode, functioning as second Working Electrode versus the Reference and Counter electrode of channel 1. Both working electrodes are recorded simultaneously in the Bipotentiostat mode.

The Sensit BT.SNS has a lead connected to the WE of channel 2 and can be used out-of-the-box for BiPotentiostat measurements.

On-board data storage

The Sensit BT is equipped with 500 MB internal storage memory.

Save measurements on-board as a backup. Or pre-program the device with a script and use the trigger button to run and store measurements: no need to connect a PC or smartphone. Browse and transfer all internally stored measurements back to the PC easily using PSTrace for Windows.

MultiEmStat4

The MultiEmStat4 is a compact Potentiostat, Galvanostat, and optional Frequency Response Analyser (FRA) for Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) with 8 or 12 channels. The MultiEmStat4 comes in two versions; the Low Range version is great for applications that require a low current range down to 1 nA, whereas the High Range version is very suitable for applications that need a maximum current of 200 mA.

The MultiEmStat4 is controlled with MultiTrace for Windows, or you can write your own MethodSCRIPT and control it from any platform or operating system.

Available with 8 or 12 channels
FRA / EIS: 10 μHz up to 200 kHz
Potential range: ±3 V (LR) or ±6 V (HR)
Max. current: ±30 mA (LR) or ±200 mA (HR)

Always a backup

The MultiEmStat4 is equipped with 500 MB internal storage memory on each channel for storing your measurements as a backup. All internally stored measurements can be browsed and transferred back to the PC easily using the MultiTrace software. Your data is always with your instrument wherever you take it.

Synchronizing channels in Synched mode

By enabling synchronization of channels and adjusting the setup of your cables, you can use the MultiEmStat4 as a polypotentiostat. This means you can use multiple working electrodes, one counter and one reference electrode in the same cell at the same time. Your working electrodes all perform the same measurement.

Specifications

The MultiEmStat4M is available in two versions: the LR (Low Range) and HR (High Range) version.

Main differences between the MultiEmStat4 Low and High Range


Potential range	±3 V	±6 V
Max. compliance voltage	±5 V	±8 V
Current ranges	1 nA to 10 mA (8 ranges)	100 nA to 100 mA (7 ranges)

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.
