...
An Oxford Instruments Cryojet5 capable of cooling and heating capillary samples in the temperature range 85-500 K. The cryojet can be used in conjunction with a 15 position sample changer for spun capillaries. Both the cryojet and hot air blower can be mounted on the beamline at the same time to cover a wide temperature range.

A hydrothermal cell is available which is capable of operating up to 230°C. The cell design is optimised so that the only contribution to the background is that of the fused-quartz capillary holding the sample. The sample is sealed on a PTFE ferrule, minimising issues with chemcial compatibility.
Ion Exchange Cell -
The ion-exchange cell is a liquid flow cell that is attached to a valve manifold. There is a pressure transducer to measure the back pressure throughout the scan to establish the stability of the column.
