Single Channel Potentiostats

ModuLab XM ECS

ModuLab XM ECS is an Xtreme Measurement electrochemical test system that is capable of measuring ultra-low, micro-ohm impedance cells (latest generation batteries and fuel cells, for example), while being able to accurately characterize ultra-high impedance corrosion coatings at the other extreme. The system uses a unique AC calibration method that ensures ultimate accuracy in all cases. Each system is independently calibrated, ensuring the accuracy of your results.

Dedicated system for analysis of PhotoElectrochemistry and related applications.
