Dedicated application

The 8-channel instrument is designed for applications where multiple cells are operated in parallel for long periods of time, and is capable of all standard DC electrochemical techniques.

The OctoStat200.dc has a grounded CE configuration which allows:

• multiple channels in 1 cell (bipotentiostat, WE-arrays, Devanathan, etc.)
• sharing CE and RE for multiple cells or samples
• combination with an other potentiostat to form a bipotentiostat

Key specifications 
– Scan range: ±10V/±200mA
– Grounded CE configuration
– Current ranges from 10nA to 100mA
– Max. acquisition rate: 1,000 pnts/s

Complete solution

The OctoStat offers a complete package. The hardware includes low current measurement possibility down to 10nA full-scale with sub-fA resolution, and analog measurement channels for secondary signals such as temperature. All measurement and dataprocessing software is included.

Safety

The maximum current or potential of the instrument can be defined by the operator. Thus valuable samples may be protected, and unsafe situations prevented.

Data security & Connection

The OctoStat is equipped with an integrated DataSecure module:

• Data is stored on board independent of the computer.
• Connection of multiple PCs is possible.

Hardware

• Automatic current range selection: 10nA to 100mA
• Simultaneous acquisition of current/potential and peripheral analog signal
• Real time data up to 1,000 pnts/s
• Applicable scanrates: 1µV/s to 10,000V/s
• Minimum interval time 1ms

Software

The OctoStat200.dc is controlled via Ivium’s own software, IviumSoft. This versatile, yet intuitive software, allows instrument control, data management and analysis, etc. The OctoStat can also be controlled from LabVIEWTM, C++, Delphi, etc. A full suite of software is included as standard with each instrument.

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