The sample
The electrode contacts the liquid sample. The frequency sweep, drawn as the bars of the drop, runs through the sample from high to low frequencies.
AquaSpecter
From water to data: impedance spectroscopy in your hand.
Pocket EIS to measure liquid samples frequently and get report-ready Bode and Nyquist curves. Also available inline for continuous readout.

How it works
From water to data, in three steps
Impedance spectroscopy applies a small alternating electrical signal to the sample and measures how it responds across a frequency sweep. That response describes the sample without altering it.
The signal
AquaSpecter applies a small AC perturbation and records magnitude and phase at each frequency.
The data
The response becomes Bode and Nyquist curves ready to interpret and report, with the same criteria every time.
Formats
Two ways to measure
The same principle in a compact device for spot measurements, or built into the pipe for continuous monitoring.

What you get
Curves ready to interpret
Every measurement produces the two standard EIS views, in the same format from one sample to the next.
- Nyquist: separates solution resistance, charge transfer and diffusion.
- Bode: shows magnitude and phase against frequency to compare samples at a glance.
- Output ready for reporting and for equivalent-circuit fitting with EIS-Toolkit.
