  • FRA/EIS: 10µHz-20kHz on each channel for simultaneous testing.
  • 19″ rack-mountable housing.
  • Internal uDataSecure –  experiment can run without PC.
  • Optional temperature input per channel.

Dedicated battery test system

The IviCycle is a multi-channel test system with optional impedance capability. The channels are divided over 4 channel modules which can be a mix of the different IviCycle modules to create the desired number of channels with varying compliance.

Modules are available either as a DC version (no EIS), or as an EIS version with impedance capability on each of the channels. This means that simultaneous/parallel impedance measurements are possible on all channels. The IviCycle has an integrated DataSecure module that stores all data for each channel completely independently from the computer. This ensures that if there is a communication loss or a computer crash/update, the measurement will continue and data will not be lost and so gives peace-of-mind for long duration, high throughput testing. The IviCycle unit is built into a 19inch rack mountable housing for easy incorporation into existing storage racks, or as a stand-alone bench-top multi-channel system.

 

 

Safety

The maximum current or potential of the instrument can be defined by the operator. Thus valuable samples may be protected, and unsafe situations prevented.

 

Data security & Connection

The IviCycle is equipped with an integrated DataSecure module:

  • Data is stored on board independent of the computer.
  • Connection of multiple PCs is possible

Software:

IviCycle is controlled via Ivium’s own software suite which is available free for download. The suite includes:

  • For (battery) cycling, CycliScan (with MC Mode for larger channel counts in the 100s);  IVILab for battery data analysis;
  • For electrochemistry and materials research IviumSoft.

The IviCycle can also be controlled from LabVIEWTM, C++, Delphi, etc. A full suite of software is included as standard with each instrument.

  • Control of separate channels individually
  • Control channel groupings simultaneously
  • Synchronous start
  • Data from different channels plotted individually or in 1 single graph
