APPLICATION SOFTWARE
SI1287 works equally well as a
stand-alone instrument, or
as
part
of a computer
controlled system. The advantages of using a PC for control and data storage are:
•
Complex set-ups can be stored and downloaded
rapidly, avoiding
the need for
time consuming (and error prone)
manual
set-ups
•
Easy-to-use
mouse-driven menu selections to set up and display data
•
Wide variety of display formats available
•
Results can be stored on disk for later analysis and trending
•
Polarization sweeps, impedance tests, harmonic
analysis
and EC noise tests
can be
run with
ease
•
Equivalent circuit simulation and curve fitting facilities give greater insight
into reactions
mechanisms
Other facilities include direct
readout of corrosion rate and polarization
resistance, 3-dimensional plotting routines, Tafel fitting software, and batch tests
(including automatic test
sequencing and full multiplexer support).

software portfolio is
constantly being updated. Please contact

FURTHER READING
Understanding Electrochemical Cells
,
by A.M. Kauffman. (Technical Report
01
7/85)
This book gives
a
simple
non-mathematicai
treatment of what happens
in
an
electrochemical
cell during a
corrosion process. It is intended for
technicians who wish to obtain an
intuitive grasp of the phenomena involved.
Identification
of
Electrochemical Processes by
Frequency Response Analysis,
by
Claude Gabrielli. (Technical Report
004/83)
This book
gives
a broad
introduction
to the many
different techniques that can be
used
in
electrochemistry. Although written by an
electrochemist for electrochemists
the
book
does
not aim
to be a
deep study, but it does contain an extensive
bibliography. You are thus directed to a
number of classical treatises and
scientific papers on many subjects of interest.
Use and Applications
of
Electrochemical
Impedance Techniques,
by Claude
Gabrielli. (Technical Report No.
24)
This book complements the author’s other
book
(above),
but
is more application oriented. Again, reference is made to many
scientific papers.
Use and
Analysis
of
EIS Data
for
Metals and Alloys, by Florian Mansfeld.
(Technical Report No.
26)
This is a
collection of reports, previously published
by
Schlumberger Technologies, which describes in some detail the different
analytical processes required for data acquired by electrochemical impedance
spectroscopy. The models proposed
for the simulation and fitting of EIS
data
are
discussed and each is illustrated
by
the
interpretation of
actual
experimental
data.
