echem-workstation
Universal interface between sensor and software
The eChem workstation is a measurement system with software that allows the connection of many different sensors or measurement and control devices.
This eliminates the need to develop a custom measurement system and software, saving valuable research time. The integrated software contains an extensive database of the most common devices (USB, RS232) and can be expanded at the customer’s request.
The workstation also offers storage space and the ability to mount equipment and sensors to a profile wall. The integration of Biologic potentiostats makes it particularly suitable for electrochemical experiments.
Dependencies (limits) can be created between the various devices and sensors. Automatic operation is also possible, as the user can create sequences. In addition, the sensors and devices can be linked to each other via various controllers (e.g. PID).
Various devices can be connected in series via the RTU mode interface.
For example:
- Flowmeters and -controllers:
- from Bronkhorst
- from Alicat
- Pumps:
- from Gather
- from Hirschmann
- Transmitters
- from Knick
- from Mettler Toledo
Each analog input can be parameterized independently. Sensors can be connected in 2-, 3-, or 4-wire technology.
Possible input variables are:
- +- 10 V
- +- 5 V
- 0 … 10 V
- 0 … 5 V
- 2 … 10 V
- 1 … 5 V
- 0 … 20 mA
- 4 … 20 mA
Each analog output can be parameterized independently. The following actuators can be controlled:
- +- 10 V
- +- 5 V
- 0 … 10 V
- 0 … 5 V
- 2 … 10 V
- 1 … 5 V
- 0 … 20 mA
- 4 … 20 mA
