Hot Air Blower -
Status
colourGreen
titleAvailable

...

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. 


Eurotherm Temperature Controllers -
Status

These radial geometry battery cells are optimised for PDF data collections.

Hydrothermal Cell -
Status
colourYellow
titleAvailable

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 -
Status
