For half a century, Princeton Applied Research has been a leader in the design and manufacture of instrumentation for scientific research and is recognized today as one of the most trusted and reliable names in the field of electrochemical research, offering such instruments as the PARSTAT 2273 and VersaStat Series potentiostat/galvanostats.

Princeton Applied Research was founded in 1961 by a group of scientists from Princeton University and the Plasma Physics Laboratory. Among its earliest products were power supplies, voltmeters and the first commercial lock-in amplifier. In 1969, the business expanded into electrochemical research with the release of the Model 170 potentiostat/galvanstat, which served as the foundation for its entire line of industry-leading electrochemical of products.

Acquired in 1967 by EG&G, Inc., which later became Perkin Elmer, Princeton Applied Research was acquired in 2002 by AMETEK, Inc., and is now a unit within AMETEK Advanced Measurement Technology in Oak Ridge, TN. AMETEK, is a leading global manufacturer of electronic instruments and electromechanical devices with annualized sales of $2.7 billion.

Princeton Applied Research is a leading manufacturer and global distributor of instrumentation and software for research electrochemistry, corrosion research, battery/fuel cell development, sensor research, and impedance measurements. It provides a full suite of products, including potentiostats, galvanostats, impedance analyzers, localized imaging equipment and a host of related software, ancillary instruments, and accessories.
