Software offers techniques such as linear polarisation, Tafel, and cyclic polarisation along with the capability to create, modify, and save additional custom techniques
The VSP is a research grade potentiostat within a modular chassis.
The modular chassis allows the VSP to add additional capability in the way of plug-in modules.
These modules provide electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) capability, low current expansion, high current boosters and additional potentiostat channels.
With a configuration of two potentiostats, the VSP is able to address bi-potentiostat applications in analytical electrochemistry.
Each potentiostat can have the ability to perform electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), further enhancing its value.
In fact, up to five potentiostats can be configured into the chassis.
These potentiostats can be configured to work as an N-stat, with multiple working electrodes, and one common reference and counter electrode.
This allows the VSP to be an integral part of the development of multi-electrode electrochemical sensors.
The VSP can work with an in-chassis 4A option, and a variety of external high current boosters.
This makes the VSP perfect for research in the area of fuel cells, batteries and supercapacitors where high currents are produced and measured.
Powerful Windows applications software, EC-Lab, is included with the VSP.
Also available are EC-View, simplified quick-start software, and a collection of LabView executable techniques.
The VSP is described as the perfect instrument for universities and research laboratories addressing a variety of electrochemical applications.
When fully loaded with all the options available, the VSP becomes the ultimate electrochemical workstation, says Trogone.
