Sample holders are the interface between the sample and the manipulator. Attached to the tip of the rotary drive, the connection provides primary and azimuthal movement to the sample holder. Services such as liquid nitrogen cooling and heating are also connected to the sample holder when fully configured. Different sample holders are available with different functionality, including primary and secondary rotation, non-magnetic and up to 50mm E offset of the sample.
Key Features
Rotary Drive Required
RD1 for Primary & RD2 for Azimuthal
Combine with Resistive & Electron Beam Heating
The heater controllers used with these units can be used to monitor liquid nitrogen temperatures
Liquid Nitrogen Cooling Module to -165ºC
Achieve base pressure in approximately *5 minutes
Combine with ZLNHX Kit for Optimal Performance
The ZLNHX kit includes a condensing coil and polystyrene dewar with insulated connecting tubes
Use a Plain Carrier for Non-Heating Setups
If no heating is required, then the plain sample accessory (ZSPA) series is recommended to provide sample and cooling braid attachment
