Modular High End Potentiostat Zahner IM7

The IM7 is a modular high-end potentiostat / galvanostat including a frequency response analyzer (FRA). The IM7 potentiostat offers 32-bit DC resolution and 24-bit AC resolution across 12 different current ranges, which allows it to carry out precise and accurate measurements.

The IM7x can either be operated by Zahner Lab or by the zahner_link API. The zahner_link libraries communicate with the IM7x via WebSocket connections, exchanging JSON objects. Built with a C++ core, the zahner-link also offers Python bindings for simplified programming.

The main specifications for the IM7 are

  • DC voltage ranges: ±5 V and ±15 V
  • Current up to ±3 A over 12 current ranges
  • EIS frequency range from 10 µHz to 8 MHz
  • Up to 5 parallel channels for EIS (1 PAD42 card)
  • Supported operating systems: Windows, Linux, and macOS
  • Controllable by C++ and Python
