Potentiostat Galvanostat
VersaSTAT 4
The improved low current performance with fA resolution and pA accuracy addresses current sensitive applications such as sensors, corrosion, inhibitors, and combined with the optional FRA, coating technologies. The additional analog filtering makes the VersaSTAT 4 an even better choice for low-current applications while the additional bandwidth filtering adds extra stability for capacitive cells. The VersaSTAT 4, with its additional capabilities, makes an exciting addition to our VersaSTAT family making them even more of an exceptional value for all of your application needs.

Room Temperature Sample Holders
12962A
The 12962A sample holder is designed to allow accurate impedance tests of solid materials to be performed at room temperature. The sample holder consists of two parallel electrodes, one of which is fixed in position and the other which can be moved into contact with the sample by adjustment of a micrometer. The sample holder makes use of guard ring and reference techniques in order to improve accuracy by reducing “fringing” effects at the edge of the sample. The standard electrode provided is 20mm diameter.

Scanning Droplet Cell
VS-SDC
Scanning Droplet System (SDC) uses a compact peristaltic pump to force electrolyte through a small diameter tube and into a specifically designed head. This PTFE-based SDC head is machined to allow electrolyte to flow past an installed Reference Electrode and then to a port at the base of the head.

Materials Test Systems
An impedance analyzer is a device that uses a programmable AC voltage / current source, together with voltage and current measurement circuits, to characterize sample impedance over a wide range of frequency. An example of this being the world famous Solartron Analytical 1260A Impedance Analyzer that provides EIS impedance characterization over more than 12 decades of frequency from uHz to tens of MHz. Impedance Analysis characterization is a key technology that enables new materials development for semiconductors, smart-materials, ferroelectrics, piezo-electrics, solid oxide, solid electrolytes, ceramics, polymers, OLED and many more materials.

LHe/LN2 Cryostat System
129610A
Liquid nitrogen (LN2) or liquid helium (LHe) can be used as the cryogen depending on the required operating temperature range. This allows standard tests to be performed using relatively low cost LN2 as the cryogen. Higher cost LHe can be substituted for the duration of tests where very low temperature is required, providing an economical solution to your test requirements.

Battery Cycler
Rechargeable (secondary) batteries in real-world applications are charged and discharged many times until they reach end of life. Examples of this are batteries used in cell phones, PCs, power tools and automotive applications. After multiple charge/discharge cycles, cell performance starts to degrade. The batteries typically require charging more frequently until eventually they reach end of life and need to be replaced, with the original cells either being scrapped or repurposed.

Frequency Response Analyzers
Frequency Response Analysis (also referred to as Transfer Function Analysis) measures the output spectrum of a system relative to a stimulus, and is used to characterize the dynamics of the system under test. The technique measures the magnitude and phase relationship between output and input waveforms as a function of frequency. The input signals may be from a wide range of sensors including acoustic (microphones/sonar), mechanical (accelerometers/displacement transducers), optical (photodetectors), and electrical (amplifiers).
