Vertex.1A
The Vertex.1A is a versatile entry-level potentiostat which has ±1A / ±10V compliance and optional integrated impedance analyser up to 1MHz.
The Vertex.1A has a peripheral port to allow external interfacing and compatibility with several Ivium modules (see expandability).
The Vertex.1A can optionally be expanded with a True Linear Scan module, Bipotentiostat and/or FRA/EIS capability. Next to that the Vertex is compatible with other Ivium options and modules, such as the HiMUX and CIM, and several Ivium boosters for higher power requirements.

Features
- Scan range: ±1A/±10V
- Optional FRA/EIS: 10µHz to 1MHz
- Optional True Linear Scan generator
- Optional Bipotentiostat
