zzzPP3010 Cryo-SEM/Cryo-FIB/SEM Preparation System (continued) CRYO-SEM & CRYO-FIB/SEM PREPARATION EDITION III


OPTIONS AND ACCESSORIES


NEW: Cryo Rotate Stage Offering 360° rotation, the


innovative Cryo Rotate Stage allows for ion milling and observation/analysis of samples at cryogenic


temperatures down to -160 °C.


The unique Cryo Rotate Stage facilitates cryo-FIB lamella preparation, cryo- FIB lift out and cryo-tomography. The Cryo Rotate Stage is compatible with most makes and models of SEM and FIB/SEM.


Recommended Applications


z Cryo-SEM and Cryo-FIB/SEM samples E Cryo-FIB lamella preparation

Rapid Warming Tower for the CHE3010


This device is meant to facilitate a rapid warming of the CHE3010 (Cryo- Heat Exchanger) associated with the PP3010 Cryo-SEM preparation system. The Rapid Warming Tower in conjunction with a 1 liter/min Nitrogen gas flow rate dramatically reduces the lag time before the SEM or Prep chamber components return to room temperature so venting can occur. A process that normally takes hours can be completed in minutes, allowing maintenance or reconfiguring the SEM back to room temperature operation. Accepts many common, locally obtained hair dryers. (Hair Dryer not included).


Pressurized LN2 Dewar The PP7450/60L is a highly recommended option that generates dry nitrogen gas used for cooling the SEM cold stage & cold trap and cryo preparation chamber and cold shields. In addition, LN2 can be decanted for slushing (freezing). During normal operation the PP7450/60L will generate dry nitrogen gas for up to eight days usage.

Specimen Shuttles and Stubs


The PP3010 is supplied with a selection of holders, and a range of additional specimen shuttles and stubs is also available. (See Ordering Information for details).


Cryoflow Work Options


Glove Box Valve/Airlock Interface The airlock is connected to a glove box using a generic NW fitting and for most applications requires a suitable pumping system (rotary pump or turbomolecular plus diaphragm pumping system).


The airlock is designed to accept the PP3010 vacuum transfer device.


TEM Prep Slusher Option Offers an easy, convenient way of transporting pre-frozen specimens to and from the PP3010.


• Conveniently locates into the Prepdek® PP3010


workstation of the


• Freely transportable, e.g. between high pressure freezer, cryoultramicrotome and the PP3010


Cryo preparation chamber with cryo transfer device fitted


• Ideal for loading/unloading TEM grids and grid holders


• Tilting holder for cryo shuttles (holders). Allows the easy transfer of specimens from external freezers (e.g. high pressure, jet, slam etc)


Rapid Warming Tower • Option for PP3010 and previous PP3000T and PP2000/PP2000T models


Pre-Frozen Sample Loading Jig for PP3010


This loading jig allows you to comfortably load pre-frozen samples, ie: HPF or Rivets, into the PP3010 specimen shuttles (not included). The loaded shuttles can then be transferred to the PP3010 slushing pot on the Prepdek®


. Includes the LN2


container, Lexan cover, loading jig, and a short transfer rod.


Gas cooling dewar and turbo pump


If the PP7450/60L is not included, appropriate, locally sourced, nitrogen gas cylinders can be used. It is important to ensure that it has low moisture content – if in doubt, please contact us.


Carbon Evaporation and Film Thickness Monitor A carbon evaporation attachment and a terminating film thickness monitor can be fitted. Both are fully integrated (no external control boxes required).


Pre-Frozen Sample Loading Jig Tilt-Rotate Shuttle


Glove box valve/airlock interface
