Modular Electrochemical Systems

The new ModuLab system from Solartron Analytical  is a high performance reference grade potentiostat / galvanostat system using a plug-and-play modular architecture to offer a wide range of features and benefits. Options include frequency response analyzers, high voltage cell polarization, low current measurement capability and power boosters. The following table summarizes some of the key features and applications of the system.

ModuLab systems comprise a chassis with power supply and display panel, and with either four or eight available slots, into which ModuLab modules may be inserted. As a minimum the system is fitted with one or more potentiostat modules; each of these in turn can then support one or more accessory cards, which include a frequency response analyzer, power booster, high voltage cards, and a femto ammeter for measuring very weak signal currents.

The system is controlled via an Ethernet interface from a PC running Windows XP or Vista using one of two available software packages.

The ModuLab operating software is included in the system price and is a very flexible and comprehensive package for electrochemical research. A large selection of experiment types is provided, from standard open circuit and cyclic voltammetry tests to complete multi-step sequences that can include sample preparation, potentiostatic / galvanostatic ramp and pulse techniques, and integrated impedance analysis.

Alternatively, for Solartron Analytical users who are familiar with software for our existing systems, supplied by Scribner Associates, then the system can also be controlled from the Zplot.Lab software that they have developed for us.
