The Bioanalytical Systems LC-4C Amperometric Detector is an analog detector specifically designed for LC/EC, with high current sensitivity, extensive filtering, offset and autozero. In addition to front panel controls, it can also be controlled from a PC using the ChromGraph software. One advantage of PC control is that it allows potential wave forms other than fixed potential to be applied to the cell (e.g., a triple pulse wave form for PAD applications).
 
There are 2 channels available on the Bioanalytical Systems LC-4C Amperometric Detector - the detector channel, which applies a potential and measures the current response, and the generator channel, which can apply a potential. The detector channel is used in all experiments, whereas the generator channel is only used in experiments in which analyte is electrolyzed before reaching the detector electrode; for example, dual series electrode applications. If the current on both channels needs to be recorded, two LC-4C detectors can be combined, or an LC-4C can used in combination with a Petite Ampere.
