The potentiostats must meet the following mandatory requirements:

-EIS measurements up to 2MHz (EIS up to at least 1 MHz for the first potentiostat and EIS up to at least 2 MHz for the second potentiostat)
-Minimum potential and current operating window of +/- 12V and +/- 1A or +/- 6V and +/- 5A
-License free software to install on multiple lab and office computers must be provided.
-Small form factor for a variety of installation locations
-Must provide data in excel format.
-Must provide raw data (time, voltage, current) so we can plot lissajous graphs and do analysis of harmonics
-A user manual must be included with the machine in English language.
