EmStat Blue is a small USB and battery powered potentiostat with integrated Bluetooth. It is ideal for mobile sensor applications.
EmStat Blue is a small and low cost potentiostat with research grade capabilities. It has eight current ranges from 1 nA to 100 mA (EmStat3+ Blue) full scale, with a minimum resolution of 1 pA. It provides the most relevant electroanalytical measurement techniques and is used with the PSTrace software or with PStouch for Android.
Standard included with an EmStat Blue:
Optional:
EmStat Blue is ideal for customization because it has:
