Cryo Transfer System for Environmentally Sensitive Samples
Quick Overview
The Actively Cooled Transfer (ACT) is specifically designed for transferring delicate samples under both cryogenic conditions & high vacuum or at ambient temperatures under inert atmosphere. Its unique features include a built-in cold stage and an anti-contaminator, ensuring that sample integrity is maintained during the transfer process. The ACT is equipped with the solid Magdrive transfer rod and an attached cooling dewar, offering a highly accessible and portable solution for your needs.
Key Features
- Compatible with most makes and models of SEM and FIB-SEM
- Can be interfaced with other devices, such as Ion Mills
- Cold stage cooled to -160 °C
- Anti-contaminator cooled to -180 °C
- Glovebox interfacing required for inert gas transfer
- Transferring materials sensitive to atmosphere, such as Battery and Fuel Cells
- Operates in conjunction with PP3010 and PP3006
- Transfer in high vacuum in the region of 10-6 mbar
