With its measuring instruments, test benches and systems, EKTechnologies, in close cooperation with LXInstruments, provides solutions for the urgent questions of our time, especially in the field of renewable energies. Starting with test systems for fuel cells and much more.

The portfolio ranges from the ultra-portable PalmSens SensitSmart potentiostats for research on electrochemical sensors to the highly specialised IVIUM potentiostats for numerous fields of application in electrochemistry to the all-in-one fuel cell test benches by Scribner Associates. Last but not least, we are able to tackle especially customised and novel problems regarding high currents (over 100A), impedance analysis with over 120 channels and many more, together with the experts from MaterialsMates. We also offer a wide range of accessories such as measuring cells and electrodes.

BASi was founded as a part of Inotiv, Inc. in 1974 in Indianapolis, Indiana, to commercialize an electrochemical detector for liquid chromatography. Since then BASi has grown as an instrument company that provides academia and industry equipment for electrochemical experiments and in vivo sampling. BASi’s portfolio comprises potentiostats, galvanostats, liquid chromatography products as well as a broad array of accessories for static and flow experiments, such as flow cells, electrodes and cell stands.  

Typical electrochemical devices: potentiostats/galvanostats, different working, counter and reference electrodes, RDE, electrochemical (flow)cells.

Leancat was founded in 2016 in Prague, Czech Republic, to commercialize the research results on catalysts for fuel and electrolysis cells. In addition to fuel cell systems and electrolysers, the focus is on fuel cell and electrolysis test stations. Leancats portfolio ranges from various pre-configured systems (100 W to 50 kW) up to fully customized test stations. In addition, the product range includes in-house developed cell fixtures with a compressed-air mounting system.

Typical devices: PEM fuel cell testers, electrolysers and cell fixtures

MaterialsMates was founded in 2006 by a team of specialists in the field of materials science and development of devices for electrochemistry. The experience is specifically in the areas of battery research, fuel cells, ceramics and complex multi-channel systems.

Typical systems: Multi-channel impedance systems for fuel cells and electrolysis

Neware has been developing and manufacturing reliable battery test systems for research and technology since 1998. Neware's portfolio ranges from small-scale battery cyclers for research institutes to battery systems for the e-mobility market. In order to adapt the environment such as temperature or humidity for the electrochemical tests, Neware offers climatic chambers especially for the test devices or climatic chamber and battery cycler in one device.

Typical devices: battery cyclers and environmental test chambers

Newtons4th Ltd. (often abbreviated to N4L) was established in 1997 with the aim of developing and manufacturing innovative electronic equipment for the world market.

Today, N4L is best known for its excellent power electronics instrumentation, including power analysers, frequency response analysers, impedance analysers or AC sources.

Origalys was founded by employees of Radiometer Analytical and aims to set new standards in electrochemistry. The experience gained with the well known VoltaLab products has proved to be very helpful. The range comprises potentiostats, galvanostats, impedance measuring stations and multi-channel systems. Origalys also offers a wide range of electrodes and accessories.

Typical devices: Potentiostats/galvanostats with EIS

Palmsens specialises in the manufacture of small, portable instruments for sensor development. Due to the extensive software, the devices can of course be used in many areas of physical chemistry. With its dimensions of 43 x 25 x 11 mm, the EmStat is probably one of the smallest potentiostats in the world.

Typical devices: potentiostat, galvanostat
