Magnetically Levitated Turbopumps


The Pfeiffer Vacuum HiPace M high-perfor- mance magnetically levitated turbopumps have high pumping speeds (300 l/s, 700 l/s, and 800 l/s), have high gas throughput, and achieve high compression ratios for all gases. These pumps are optimized to run in all mounting orientations with a low vibration signature and quiet operation. An advanced rotor design provides unlimited rotor service life, out of balance compensation, and


dependable operation. They are maintenance-free and oil-free.

44 Recirculating Gas Cooler


Existing liquid-helium-cooled microscopy cryostats can be converted to cryogen-free operation with the addition of an external cryocooler, the Janis Recirculating Gas Cryocooler (RGC4). Instead of using liquid helium from a storage vessel, the RGC4 delivers a stream of 4K helium to the


microscopy cryostat. T is combination provides positional stability to <10 nm and is suitable for micro-PL, micro-Raman, and other vibration-sensitive techniques.

Bunton Instrument Introduces RetroBOT – Motorized XYZ for Upright Optical Microscopes


RetroBOT components are 3D-printed, and the conventional XYZ stepper motors are connected to the Bunton Arduino controller that comes with each system. A demo is available on YouTube channel “T eMICROBG.” T is is a good hardware solution for image stitching and z -stacking. It can be used with small-format or large-format digital cameras (DSLR). It is shown here with the USA-made InFocus that replaces the trinocular tube, viewing oculars, and expensive camera couplers. RetroBOT developer kits are now available.
