ACM Instruments

Gill AC

A high specification corrosion monitoring instrument for most AC/DC corrosion tests. Includes a potentiostat, galvanostat and zero resistance ammeter. Up to 32 Gill AC's can be run simultaneously from the same PC with independent control of each instrument. The Gill AC forms the basis of the Gill 8 and Field Machine ranges and can also be run parallel with these instruments.

Field Machine

Ruggedised laboratory instrument for use in the field. This instrument has its own power source with an outlet for the PC.
Additional power can be taken from the mains or a 12-24V source, such as a car power socket. All cables are provided together with a robust carrying bag.

Click Field Machine for more information.

Gill 8

Multiple sequential channel laboratory instrument. Typically used for testing inhibitors. Can be supplied as the Gill 4, 6, 8, 12 or 16 with the same number of channels. Cables included.

Click Gill 8 for more information.

Pot 16

Sixteen channel cathodic disbondment tester. Combines the reliability and simplicity of a manual instrument with single page software.

Click Pot 16 for more information.

Gill 12 Weld Tester

A Gill 12 with the ability to test segmented galvanically coupled welds around the couple potential using galvanic and polarising techniques. An offsetting version is also available. Ideal for testing of multiple electrodes in the same test tank around their individual rest potential.

Femto Amp

Ideal for high impedance testing on paints and coatings.
Best used with a Faraday cage
Optional extra for Gill AC, Gill 8 and Field Machine.

Click Femto Amp for more information.

Isolated 30

For measurement of galvanic current and potential on up to 30 galvanic couples in the same electrolyte with optical isolation between channels.

Click Isolated 30 for more information.

LPR Meter and bespoke LPR Meter

A traditional battery/mains powered LPR Meter and a bespoke LPR Meter for in situ long term monitoring in the field.

Weld and Paints & Coatings Animation (1989)

This 25+ year old Weld and Paints & Coatings animation was created using Microsoft DOS Paint using 4 colour CGA mode. It was shown in Manchester, UK in 1989 for a corrosion conference.

Manufacturers of floating Electrochemical Instrumentation since 1985. ACM Instruments offers high precision automated potentiostats and software at affordable prices. Our instrumentation is used in a wide range of industries such as Aerospace, Atmospheric, Batteries, Bioelectrochemistry, Central Heating, Concrete, Corrosion, Electrochemistry, Electroplating, Fuel Cells, Inhibitors, Marine, Nuclear, Paints & Coatings, Traditional and Welds plus many more. We offer the most diverse range of instrumentation on the market today.

Our range of instrumentation covers all Corrosion and Electrochemistry testing; Potentiostat, Zero Resistance Ammeter (ZRA), Frequency Response Analyser (FRA) and Galvanostat capabilities of our standard instruments enable all standard test techniques to be performed, such as Current & Voltage Noise, AC Impedance (EIS), Cyclic Sweep (Potentiodynamic sweeps), Step & Sweep LPR, Galvanodynamic Sweeps, IR Compensation, Corrosion Rate plus many more. Please view Techniques for more details.

For the laboratory, we can provide single channel instruments such as Gill AC, multiple sequential instruments such as Gill 8, Gill 12 or Weld Tester. We make parallel channel instrumentation such as the Bi-Stat, Pot 16, Gal 16, GalvoGill 12, Isolated 30, Parallel 30 LPR, Zed 16 and the Anode 16. We also build weatherproof on-site or portable instrumentation such as the Field Machine for use out in the field. For educational purposes ACM supply Traditional instrumentation like our Manual Potentiostat, Zero Resistance Ammeter and Sweep Generator to give students a real hands-on experience to corrosion and cell setups. ACM Instruments are experts at bespoke instrumentation to meet the needs of even the most unusual application. Please view our product range for more information.

Our customers also like the friendly and helpful service we provide, which seems to be sadly lacking at our competitors. The ability to pick up the phone or e-mail and get straight through to people who can help is one of our selling points.

So whether you are after a standard potentiostat or something no one else seems to offer, contact ACM and we will try to accommodate your every need.
