npi HV-TR150

The HV-TR150 is a high voltage amplifier designed to inject dyes into cells iontophoretically. It can be used in combination with an amplifier module or independently as a iontophoresis system.

The HV-TR150 can deliver max. 1500 nA into 100 MΩ and can be operated continuously or gated by a TTL signal. The injection current can be set either by a built-in potentiometer or by a data acquisition system.

BRAM(1) and HV-TR150(2) headstages with electrode holder(3)

A toggle switch allows convenient switching between recording and injection, when operated in combination with an amplifier module using the same electrode. This switch can also be operated with a TTL signal. Two LEDs at the front panel indicate whether the amplifier or the HV-TR150 is connected to the electrode. A red LED at the headstage indicates additionally that the HV-TR150 is connected to the electrode.

A digital display shows the amplitude of the injection current.

IMPORTANT: The EPMS-H-07 housing is required to operate this module!
