Key features: • Wide application range: The instrument is designed for a wide range of applications, such as battery/fuel cell-testing, electrode development, biotechnology and other Electrochemical Research applications. • Complete solution: The Ivium-n-Stat offers a complete package. The hardware includes a build-in high-performance Frequency Response Analyser, low current measurement possibility down to 10nA full-scale, and all the standard Electrochemical techniques. All measurement and dataprocessing software is included (for Windows based pc’s). • Safety: The compliance (maximum current or potential) of the instrument can be defined by the operator. Thus valuable samples may be protected, and unsafe situations prevented. • Automation: Multiple analog and digital input & output ports are available for monitoring & control of peripheral equipment. This functionality is fully integrated in the software. • Expandibility: Each channel can be expanded with various modules, such as a power booster, multiplexer, etc. • Hardware: – Automatic current range selection: 10nA to 10A/1mV to 10V – Automatic variable noise filter and potentiostat/galvanostat stability settings – Simultaneous acquisition of current/potential and peripheral analog signals – Real time data display up to 500 pnts/s. Acquisition up to 100,000 pnts/s is stored in instrument memory – Applicable scanrates: 1µV/s to 10,000 V/s – Minimum interval time/resolution: 10µs – Result optimalisation by automated tuned filters, gain amplifiers and dc-subtraction

– Control of separate channels individually – All channels simultaneously  – Synchronous start – Data from different channels plotted individually or in 1 single graph
