Potentiostat Core
PTC-05100EW
The PTC-05100EW is a high-power, water-cooled Potentiostat/Galvanostat from the Kolibrik Core Line. Engineered for continuous high-current electrochemical testing, it delivers an output voltage of ±5 V and a current range of ±100 A. With up to 1000 W of power dissipation, this unit is built to maintain stable, precise data across heavy-duty applications, including advanced battery cycling, fuel cell research, and electrolyzer development. It features integrated full-range EIS (1 mHz … 100 kHz) out of the box, providing critical diagnostics for long-term experimental procedures.
To control your device and run experiments, you use included Artemis — Kolibrik measurement software.
World-Class Power, Globally Trusted. Precision is our baseline. That’s why our official partner and global leader, Gamry Instruments, chooses to offer Kolibrik potentiostats. This synergy of high-current hardware and world-class expertise delivers the most reliable measurement systems to researchers and gigafactories everywhere.
