    PARSTAT MC-AT Multi-Channel Family
    • The PARSTAT MC-AT (PMC-AT) Family consists of the all-new PMC-AT compact 3-slot Chassis and PMC-1000-AT potentiostat, together with 10 A Booster option

    • The PMC-1000-AT has market-leading specification including 24-bit ADC resolution (150 nV / 30 fA), 8-wire DC / EIS measurement (main plus 2 aux channels), high acquisition speed using patented direct to disk technology, ethernet communications for multi-user applications.

    • Mix and match potentiostats and boosters in the same chassis – cost and space saving.

    • Add a Low Current interface for even higher current resolution down to 122 aA

    • Powered by Aspire user friendly icon-based software for a wide range of applications in energy, electrochemistry, sensors and corrosion.
  • Applications and Software +


    Users can select from the different groups of techniques that are available:

    Energy
    providing charge-discharge curves (including CC-CV) for Capacity-vs-Cycle Number or Coulombic Efficiency as well as dedicated techniques such as Constant Power, Constant Resistance and Potentiostatic / Galvanostatic Intermittent Titration Technique (PITT, GITT), C-Rate testing, arbitrary waveforms, DCIR and temperature measurement.

    Voltammetry
    providing fundamental electrochemical techniques such as Cyclic Voltammetry, Chrono-techniques. The Advanced Voltammetry techniques also include Pulse Voltammetry methods.

    Corrosion
    providing multiple corrosion analysis techniques, including the most common ASTM standards such as Linear Polarization Resistance (LPR, ASTM G59), Tafel (ASTM G5), Cyclic Polarization (ASTM G61), etc.

    Impedance 
    Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy techniques are included
