Problem
Researchers and engineers often face high costs and bulky, complex equipment when performing electrochemical measurements, which limits accessibility and consumes valuable lab space.
Solution
Admiral Instruments offers a line of Squidstat™ potentiostats that deliver research‑grade precision in a compact, affordable form factor. The devices integrate with intuitive software that streamlines experiment setup, data acquisition, and analysis, reducing the time and expertise required to run electrochemical tests. Multiple units can be managed from a single computer, enabling scalable, high‑throughput testing without expanding laboratory footprint. The product portfolio covers a range of current and voltage capabilities—from low‑current DC measurements to high‑current, high‑frequency electrochemical impedance spectroscopy—supporting diverse applications such as batteries, fuel cells, solar cells, coatings, membranes, and biosensors.
Target Audience
Primary customers are academic laboratories, R&D departments, and industrial teams developing electrochemical technologies such as batteries, fuel cells, solar cells, coatings, membranes, and biosensors.
