Model 1470E - Eight Channel Potentiostat/Galvanostats
From Electrochemistry, Corrosion & Energy
The 1470E system provides eight fully independent potentiostat/galvanostat channels that allow all traditional DC tests to be performed. The system is operated from a PC using our CellTest software package, and connection is via an industry-standard Ethernet interface, allowing local or remote operation.

- > 10 k samples per second data acquistion (ohmic drop GSM)
Options are available to add auxiliary measurement channels to the system for anode / cathode electrode investigation (AC/DC). High current measurements are catered for by our range of external power boosters.
The ability to perform AC impedance measurements can be added to the system as follows:
Multi-Channel Parallel Impedance Measurements
For parallel impedance measurement on multiple channels including single sine, multisine/FFT and harmonic analysis a separate Model 1451A or 1455A FRA can be added to the system for each active channel. These FRAs are housed in a Model 1400A chassis. The combination of a 1470E and 1400A with one or more FRA modules is known as the Solartron CellTest System.
Single Channel Multiplexed Impedance Measurements
For sequential impedance measurements on each active channel the 1470E can be operated with a single channel model (1260A, 1255B or 1252A FRA- see below). In this case the PC is connected to 1470E and FRA via the IEEE488 (GPIB) interface.

The Solartron CellTest System is a multi-channel test system designed for the complete DC and impedance characterization of a wide range of energy storage devices such as batteries, fuel cells and super-capacitors. The speed, range and resolution of the CellTest system also make it suited to other research applications including the analysis of sensors, coatings, corrosion and general
electrochemical applications.
The CellTest system consists of one or more 1470E multi-channel potentiostats and multiple 145x series frequency response analyzers (FRAs) connected to a computer providing simultaneous DC and impedance tests on multiple cells. Each 1470E unit provides eight fully independent potentiostats, allowing up to eight separate cells to be tested simultaneously. Each channel is
completely independent allowing the same or quite different experiments to be run on each cell.
The CellTest system provides a wide range of experimental techniques, including charge / discharge, potentiostatic, potentiodynamic, galvanostatic, galvanodynamic, fast cyclic voltammetry, open circuit, fast pulse and step techniques, ohmic-drop analysis and impedance.
Simultaneous impedance tests can be run on multiple cells by connecting Solartron 145x series frequency response analyzer (FRA) modules to the 1470E. These FRAs can operate in single sine correlation or multi-sine / Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) analysis mode, providing the ultimate in speed, precision and accuracy. The 1455 FRA provides high performance impedance measurements over the frequency range 10μHz to 1MHz, while the 1451 FRA operates from 10μHz to 100kHz. Temperature controlled ovens and furnaces can be added to the system and automatically controlled from the PC over a serial communications link, providing the facility to test cells at different temperatures (for example for testing solid oxide fuel cells at up to 1000oC).
Ethernet control
The 1470E and 145x FRA units are Ethernet controlled providing either local or remote control of the instrumentation from a PC connected anywhere on the same Ethernet network. This allows experiments to be set-up and run from a quiet office environment while the test equipment and cells are located quite separately in another room or building. The Solartron CellTest system is the most advanced multi-channel battery, fuel cell, supercapacitor test system available, giving the ultimate in DC and impedance test performance.
