System Highlights

Interface 1010E Potentiostat

If you're looking for a full-featured potentiostat capable of performing all techniques, including electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, for applications such as physical electrochemistry, electrochemical corrosion, battery testing, fuel cell testing, dye solar cell testing, and sensor development, then the Interface 1010E is the right potentiostat for you.

Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy

Gamry provides Accuracy Contour Plots for every one of our potentisotats that is EIS-capable.  The accuracy contour plot provides a detailed look at the performance you can expect from your potentiostat in real-world situations. The results include the cell cable.  Accuracy contour plots are important because they let you compare the performance of potentiostats from different manufacturers to ensure you are getting the best possible measurement.

Flexible Configurations

The Interface 1010E potentiostat can be configured as a single-channel potentiostat, bipotentiostat, or multichannel-potentiostat.  Gamry provides you with the flexibility you need to get more done.

More Details

Below are additional details regarding the capabilities of the Interface 1010E potentiostat. Each bullet point contains a list of the type of techniques available for the potentiostat to run.

  • Physical Electrochemistry  - Techniques such as cyclic voltammetry, chronoamperometry, and chronopotentiometry and derivatives of these techniques.  
  • Pulse VoltammetryTechniques such as pulse voltammetry, square wave voltammetry, and associated stripping techniques such as anodic stripping voltammetry.  
  • DC CorrosionRun standard DC corrosion tests such as polarization resistance, potentiodynamic, cyclic polarization, and galvanic corrosion in addition to a number of others.
  • Electrochemical EnergyTest single-cells and stacks of various batteries, fuel cells or supercapacitors. Includes charge, discharge, cyclic charge-discharge techniques, potentiostatic, galvanostatic, self-discharge, leakage rate, and read cell voltage.
  • Electrochemical Signal Analyzer -  Designed specifically for the acquisition and analysis of time-dependent electrochemical noise signals. Cell voltage and current are continuously monitored at rates from 0.1 Hz to 1 kHz. A full featured set of analysis tools provides powerful analysis features such as statistical analysis, detrending, impedance spectra, and histogram analysis.
  • Electrochemical Frequency ModulationA non-destructive corrosion rate measurement technique. It allows for measurement of the corrosion rate without prior knowledge of the Tafel constants. In addition, the technique determines the Tafel constants and provides 2 internal validity checks.
  • Critical Pitting Temperaturecontrols a Gamry Potentiostat, TDC4 Temperature Controller, and associated accessories to automatically measure the Critical Pitting Temperature of a material.
  • Electrochemical NoiseA more general form of electrochemical noise testing. It is also an ECM8 Multiplexer compatible electrochemical noise software package. 
  • Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy - includes experimental scripts for potentiostatic, galvanostatic and hybrid impedance spectroscopy experiments in addition to single frequency techniques like Mott-Schottky. We also have our unique power-leveling multisine technique that improves signal-to-noise across the spectrum. On the analysis side, it provides tools for fitting spectra to equivalent circuit models, Kramers-Kronig transform for data validation and a graphical model editor. Our software even includes a script for EIS simulation.
  • eChemDC Toolkitcontains all of the capabilities of the eChemBasic and further extends these capabilities by adding advanced signals and data acquisition modes to simplify implementing experiments like cyclic voltammetry, pulse voltammetry, and dynamic DC corrosion techniques. Also includes more advanced stop tests, particularly useful in fast experiments.

"The used demo version Interface 1010E Potentiostat before placing an order. We used it to run the electrochemical reaction to synthesize Lithium phthalocyanine (LiPc), which is metallic-organic, paramagnetic crystallites. We performed 3 different pilot runs and by the 3rd run, we were able to synthesize LiPc crystals, which were oxygen sensitive. This potentiostat provided required constant current and voltage and was easy to operate. Our run required 18 h of electrolysis and Interface 1010E provided us the graphics throughout the run. This is a compact machine that can be kept in small place. Since our electrolysis run required to be operated under the chemical hood, this machine was ideal.

Application Area: Electrochemical analysis of microbial fuel cell

"I have been using the Gamry Interface 1000 E potentiostat forsix months. Cyclic voltammetry test (CV), Choronoamperometry test, and Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) are some of the electrochemical tests I have been doing through it to electrochemically analyze the microbial fuel cell. This equipment is reliable to study the mechanisms of electrode reactions underlying oxidation or reduction reactions in anode and cathode compartment in the microbial fuel cell. It is easy to start, and simple to operate with stable performance. It gives accurate measurement and good reproducible. Gamry Instruments Framework is user-friendly and easy to use. Data analysis with Gamry Echem Analyst is always effortless to me. Raw data can be export as an excel file or as a metafile, or as a bitmap file for further analysis which shows its versatility and always easy to handle the data. Within the price of less than $10K it provides all the functions which is the beauty of this product. Gamry technical support for some help is very effective. The communication is very effective and helpful either through email or call, providing us information about some new functions and capabilities of the instrument too. The instrument is portable. Its size approximately equal to one A4 paper which makes it easy to transfer from one place to another in the lab and occupy less space. Four LEDs: power, data transfer usb, cell on and overload always indicate the working condition of the instrument and we can visually monitor the experiment by watching the LEDs status too. Calibration of the instrument is always easy to do as per the information provided in its manual. Overall, this instrument is very versatile, efficient and user-friendly. However, rusting in its alligator clips is often occur. Working with some liquid samples can create rusting problem in its alligator clip and it has to change frequently."
