CS350 Electrochemical Workstation
Product Introduction
The CS350 Electrochemical Workstation is a high-performance potentiostat/galvanostat and electrochemical analyzer designed for electrochemical research, material characterization, corrosion testing, electrochemical synthesis, and quantitative analysis.
The CS350 integrates a high-speed MCU, precision FET integrated circuits, digital DDS signal synthesis, high-power potentiostat/galvanostat, dual-channel analysis, and high-precision 16-bit/24-bit AD conversion. It supports a broad range of electrochemical techniques, including cyclic voltammetry (CV), linear sweep voltammetry (LSV), square wave voltammetry (SWV), differential pulse voltammetry (DPV), normal pulse voltammetry (NPV), staircase cyclic voltammetry (SCV), and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS).
All measurement functions can be automatically timed, enabling unattended and automated electrochemical measurements. USB 2.0 communication provides convenient plug-and-play connection between the workstation and computer.
