Overview +

12xx Family - 1287A and 1280Z

The current members of the 12xx Family of potentiostats include the Solartron Analytical 1287A and 1280Z.

The 1287A is a potentiostat for DC experiments, such as Cyclic Voltammetry or Galvanostatic techniques. This commonly controlled by CorrWare software.
The 1287A is also the 'electrochemical interface' for the line of Frequency Response Analyzers, such as the Solartron Analytical 1260A. These two instruments work together with ZPLOT software to provide Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy experiments up to 1 MHz.

The 1280Z combines the functionality of DC and AC experiments up to 20 kHz into a single box

Both of these products are GPIB control. For systems, such as laptops, that do not have a GPIB card installed, we do have GPIB-to-USB converter available.

Applications and Software

The Solartron Analytical 1280Z Electrochemical Test System is a complete instrument that packages the potentiostat hardware for DC and Frequency Response Analyzer (FRA) hardware for AC tests in a single compact unit.

Popular options for the 1280Z are CorrWare data DC acquisition and ZPLOT for AC acquisition software. A USB-to-GPIB converter helps support interface to modern computer.

With similar measurement technology of the 1287A Electrochemical Interface and a 1253A FRA, the 1280Z implements Solartron’s patented pulse width conversion technique to provide high accuracy, stability and linearity throughout the entire focused range of the instrument.
