Electrochemistry Module

The Q-Sense Electrochemistry Module, QEM 401, allows simultaneous QCM-D electrochemistry or QCM-D/EIS measurements. The design enables flow measurements, which is important for well-controlled experiments. Also, the module will withstand the harsh conditions necessary for some electrochemistry applications. 

The compact design makes it possible to use up to four modules simultaneously on the Q-Sense E4 system and it also fits our Q-Sense E1 system. The QCM-D sensor doubles as a working electrode for electrochemistry measurements. A platinum counter-electrode also acting as the top wall of the chamber reduces the volume above the sensor to about 100 μl. A low-leak reference electrode from WPI is included and is fixed in the outlet flow channel. 

Besides the electrodes, Viton® (O-rings) and Teflon® (flow channels inside the module) are the only additional materials exposed to liquid. QEM 401 is delivered with all necessary accessories including cables and fittings. The QEM 401 is compatible with most potentiostats.
