NOVONIX UHPC Series 
Channel Modules

NOVONIX UHPC systems use specifically designed channel modules that address a wide range of current measurements, providing the reliable, high precision, and rapid data analysis. When used with a properly controlled temperature, these systems can measure Coulombic Efficiency with better precision than any other system on the market.
NOVONIX UHPC systems can be used for formation, DCIR, HPPC, calendar ageing, cycle aging, rate testing. Compared to any other cyclers in the market, NOVONIX UHPC provides improved data quality due to its high precision current sensing resistors that brings in Current Resolution of <20 ppm and Voltage resolution of 1 μV or better. The devices are turnkey, modular systems that come in fully racked configuration and ready to use as delivered.

Specifications of the Channel Modules of the UHPC Series 

• Source Current Resolution: < 20 ppm (Full Scale Range)
• Source Current Accuracy: 0.01 % (Full Scale Range)
• Measurement Current Resolution: <20 ppm
• Measurement Current Accuracy: 0.005 % (Full Scale Range)

Benefits of the Channel Modules of the UHPC Series

• Accurate Measurements: Measure Coulombic Efficiency, up to five significant figures, to enable reliable comparisons of cells in a fraction of the time that it would take on other cyclers.
• Precise Evaluation: Evaluate active material loss, lithium inventory loss, electrolyte oxidation and more.
• Unique Observation: Observe cycle metrics unique to ultra-high precision, such as end-point capacity slippage.
• UHPC Software: Modern, intuitive, and configurable software that allows the user to batch control tests, control protocols, and monitor real time data. Customized graphical plotting and data export option to analyze data for reporting or other purposes.

Usefulness of the Channel Modules of the UHPC Series

• Materials Evaluation: Developing new material with some tunable parameters; excess lithium, morphology, particle size distribution, doping strengths etc.
• Cell Selection: For cell selection, the ability to gather cell performance data at high accuracy in a short time is critical.
• Environmental Performance Evaluation: Identify what environments, a cell begins to fail in. For example, does charge end-point capacity slippage begin to accelerate at 40°C?
• Manufacturing Process Development: Tuning process parameters on new or existing lines, for new or existing recipes, to dial in the repeatability of a manufacturing process and validate production in a quality lab.
• Battery Management Optimization: Clearly understand the electrochemical response of a cell; develop charge strategies under different environmental or use conditions.
