VSP Potentiostat – BioLogic

Versatile Research-Grade Multichannel Electrochemical Workstation

Built around a 5-channel modular chassis, the VSP is a versatile, research-grade potentiostat designed to meet the demanding requirements of electrochemical research. This highly modular electrochemical workstation can reply to the needs of all scientists with options for EIS capability, low current, high-current booster and additional potentiostat channels.

Advanced EIS Capabilities

The VSP delivers comprehensive electrochemical impedance spectroscopy measurements from 10 µHz to 1 MHz, with current ranging from 10 μA up to 1 A. The internal 4 A option takes two slots in the VSP chassis and requires a potentiostat board. External boosters from 2 A up to 100 A can be used with each channel in the VSP.

EC-Lab Software Integration

The most powerful hardware is only as performant as the software that sits behind it. Bio-Logic’s EC-Lab has earned itself the reputation as the benchmark for potentiostat control software based on a combination of intuitive control and analytic power. The system is compatible with EC-Lab, EC-Lab Express, and EC-Lab developer package.
