Instrument

The Vertex.20A is a versatile entry-level potentiostat which has ±20A/±2V compliance and optional integrated impedance analyser up to 1MHz.

Automation

The Vertex.20A has a peripheral port which it uses for connection to the RE and S cable. External interfacing and compatibility has some limitations when compared to the other Vertex instruments (see our compatibility table for reference).

Expandability

The Vertex can optionally be expanded with a True Linear Scan module, and/or FRA/EIS capability.

Hardware

• Automatic current range selection over all available current ranges
• Automatic variable noise filter and potentiostat/galvanostat stability settings
• Simultaneous acquisition of current/potential and peripheral signals
• Real time data display up to 3,000 pnts/s. Acquisition up to 300,000 pnts/s is stored in instrument memory
• Applicable scanrates: 1µV/s to 10,000V/s
• Minimum interval time: 3.33µs (0.125µs resolution)
• Result optimisation by automated tuned filters, gain amplifiers and DC-subtraction
• User selectable floating operation

Software

The Vertex is controlled via Ivium’s own IviumSoft. This versatile, yet intuitive software package allows instrument control, data management and analysis, peripheral instrument control, etc. IviumSoft can also interface with and be controlled from LabVIEW^TM, C++, Delphi, etc. A full suite of IviumSoft is included with each instrument as standard.
