  • 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. 

     

    More information could be found tought link:

    https://www.palmsens.com/product/emstat4-mux/

     

    • 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.

  • 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.

    • Bi)Potentiostat/ Galvanostat/ Impedance analyzer
    • FRA / EIS: 10 μHz up to 1 MHz
    • 11 current ranges: 100 pA to  1 A
    • Dual EIS with second sense electrode
    • Script your experiments using MethodSCRIPT
    • Use with PSTrace software for Windows

     

    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.
