Potentiostats / Galvanostats

The PG 600 USB Family

The PG 610 USB Potentiostat/Galvanostat

The PG 600 USB family is the successor to the PG 300 family of potentiostats/galvanostats. The computer-controlled potentiostats/galvanostats come with a fully integraged LIH 8+8 data acquisition interface and can be controlled by POTMASTER using either Windows or Mac OS. They can be operated in “Grounded Mode” or “Floating Mode”.

The robust PG 610 USB is suitable for most electrochemical experiments which require the control of one working electrode.

The PG 612 USB is a bipotentiostat that includes two of the amplifier boards used in the PG 610 USB. In this biopotentiostat, both working electrodes can be controlled independently from each other. Further, having two working electrodes available allows the user to investigate redox chemistry in a ring-disc configuration.

Max. Current Resolution 0.61 pA in 20 nA range 0.61 pA in 20 nA range 0.15 fA in 5 pA range(noise <3.5 fA at 15 Hz bandwidth)


The robust PG 690 USB has a compliance voltage of ± 90 V which allows working in low-conductivity electrolytes. It is suitable for most electrochemical experiments which require the control of one working electrode.


The PG 611 USB is the ideal potentiostat for low-current applications. The electrodes are connected via a pre-amplifier for low-noise, low-current measurements. It is suitable for most electrochemical experiments which require the control of one working electrode.

The PG 618 USB is a bipotentiostat that features two different amplifier boards. The wide current range makes this potentiostat unique in the market. Similar to the PG 612, both working electrodes can be controlled independently and used for investigating redox chemistry in a ring-disc configuration. Amplifier 2 (low current range) is connected via a preamplifier (“S-Probe”) to the electrodes.

Potentiostats / Galvanostats

For many years, the EPC 10 USB has been the amplifier of choice for discovering Nano-Electrochemistry by virtue of its unique 3-electrode mode low-current sensing headstage. The computer-controlled amplifier comes with a fully integrated LIH 8+8 data acquisition interface and can be controlled by PATCHMASTER or PATCHMASTER NEXT software using either Windows or Mac OS.

The EPC 10 USB is suitable for most nanoscale electrochemical experiments. The electrodes are connected via a preamplifier (“S-Probe”). This low noise amplifier is ideal for low current applications working with microelectrodes or micropipettes.

The EPC 10 USB Double incorporates twice the channel capacity of the single amplifier. The electrodes are connected via a preamplifier (“S-Probe”). With its two low current channels it is perfect for dual working electrode environments such as employing two microelectrodes or microdroplet cell arrangements.

Electrochemical Probe Scanner - ElProScan

The HEKA ElProScan is a unique electrochemical scanning probe microscope system, which employs an ultramicroelectrode and/or a nano-/micro-pipette as a scanning probe to perform in situ high-resolution microscopic imaging of reactivity and topography of various types of samples and materials. The system is offered in different configurations, which can be further optimized according to specific application needs.

• Scanning Electrochemical Microscopy (SECM)• Scanning Ion Conductance Microscopy (SICM)• Scanning Electrochemical Cell Microscopy (SECCM)• Scanning Microcapillary Method (SMCM)• Scanning Kelvin Probe (SKP)• Simultaneous Surface Topography Mapping• Synchronized Fluorescence Imaging• Photoelectrochemical Microscopy Imaging• Spatially-resolved Scanning μ-EIS, μ-CV, μ-Tafel

All versions of the ElProScan have an ESC Controller containing a real-time processor enabling advanced XYZ-positioning of the specimen. This system is equipped with closed loop regulation and linear optical encoders (2.5 nm resolution) for all axes of the DC servo motors. The Z-axis motor carries a Z-piezo translator with 1.5 nm resolution for fast and fine movements. The Z-axis assembly can be manually adjusted in the XY direction. Different stage inserts allow the investigation of a broad range of samples. The ElProScan is best operated in concert with HEKA potentiostats/galvanostats, amplifiers, and acquisition and analysis software. The system can be further customized by selecting products found in the ElProScan - Accessories, Electrical Shielding, Electrodes, and Electrode Manufacturing pages of this overview brochure.

Image acquisition is synchronized with the stimulation and data acquisition of the main program. The mean fluorescence values of the assigned ROIs are stored as additional data traces. Further, imaging and electrophysiological data are linked to each other.

The purchase includes free updates.

DocuLUX is a camera system containing either a monochrome or color camera together with the software. It is a low-cost bundle which provides enormous help for visualizing and documenting your specimen before, during or after your experimental recordings. DocuLUX can be used together with PATCHMASTER, POTMASTER or CHARTMASTER or as a stand-alone software.

The DocuLUX software can only be used with the camera provided by HEKA.

The purchase includes free updates.

SmartLUX and DocuLUX run on MS Windows 7, 8 and 10 (32/64-bit).

Cameras from the following manufacturers are available: Andor, QImaging, Photometrics, Hamamatsu and PCO. Please contact us to learn more about the supported camera models.

Faraday Cages

In many applications, the signal-to-noise ratio can be improved only with the use of a Faraday cage. A Faraday cage shields by suppressing electromagnetic waves due to high surface conductance and high permeability. They are made of steel without the use of stainless steel or aluminum and painted blue. The walls are of rugged construction and consist of coated punched sheet metal.All instruments can be grounded at one central grounding point, which can be freely positioned by the user.

Software

PATCHMASTER NEXT is the latest version of our famous PATCHMASTER software. It retains the multi-channel stimulation and data acquisition capabilities of its predecessor, but offers a brand new interface to increase user-friendliness and accelerate familiarization with its work flow. PATCHMASTER NEXT is currently only compatible with the EPC 10 USB Patch Clamp Amplifiers.The purchase of a license includes free updates.

Exchange of an old or broken PATCHMASTER or PATCHMASTER NEXT dongle. The customer needs to return the original dongle before the replacement can be sent.

PATCHMASTER is a multi-channel stimulation and data acquisition software with programmable experiment control and automation. It supports all HEKA Patch Clamp Amplifiers, starting from EPC 7 up to EPC 10 USB as well as all HEKA or InstruTECH data acquisition interfaces. Although originally developed for electrophysiological experiments, it supports all common electrochemical techniques and is used analogous to Potmaster.

PATCHMASTER licenses were replaced by PATCHMASTER NEXT licenses as no further developments will be made for PATCHMASTER. Every dongle for PATCHMASTER NEXT contains a valid license for PATCHMASTER which allows the user to use either version. PATCHMASTER NEXT will replace PATCHMASTER once compatibility and functionality are matched.

C-DLL to integrate HEKA amplifiers and data acquisition systems in customer software. Includes documentation and use of the support hotline. The EPC DLL is available for 64 bit operating systems.
