Parasitic 3He Insert for use with VTIs
Product Code: 3ICEVT20
A small, fast turnaround insert with 20mm outer diameter. Designed to be top-loaded into any manufacturer's variable temperature insert or continuous flow system (size permitting), and uses this insert's capability of reaching 1.5K in order to condense the self contained ³He charge.
Specification:
- Base temperature <320 mK
- Cooling power 50mW for >2 hours @ 350 mK
- Diameter 20 mm
- Length 350 mm
- Hold time > 4 Hours
All specifications and dimensions can be adjusted to suit a user's needs. For more details please contact us.
Parasitic 3He Insert for use with VTI's 
Product Code: 3ICEVT32
A repeat of the VT20, except with a 32mm outer diameter for use in a larger VTI. Allows a larger sample space, potential for lower base temperatures and longer hold time. To load into a 2K or below environment.
Specification:
- Base temperature <280 mK
- Cooling power 50mW for >3 hours @ 350mK
- Diameter 32 mm
- Length 450 mm
- Hold time > 4 Hours
All specifications and dimensions can be adjusted to suit a user's needs. For more details please contact us.
3He Insert for Storage Dewars or Magnet Systems
Product Code: 3ICEDIPPER
A sample in-vacuum insert top-loads into either helium transport dewar or magnet systems. Self-contained, sorption pumped, single-shot, system dimensions can be modified to suit a customers needs. Fast cooldown and sample turnaround for quick characterisation.
Specification:
- Diameter to suit LHe storage dewar or magnet system
- Length to suit system
- Base temperature <260 mK for >60 hours (no heat load applied)
- Cooling power <300 mK for >6 hours with 40mW applied heat load
- Stability ±3 mK at T < 1.5 K
- ³He regeneration time 30 mins
All specifications and dimensions can be adjusted to suit a user's needs. For more details please contact us.
Sample in Liquid 3He Insert
Product Code: 3ICETL
A top loading ³He system, the sample on probe (PRICE3) loads into the insert, down to the liquid ³He or just above. Thermal contact to the cold source, surface of the liquid can be done with the use of a thermal link made of copper, or a low eddy current cold finger if needed.
Fast and easy sample changing using a top loading probe (see PRICE3), ICEoxford® is able to offer a range of probe wiring and manipulator options. Please contact us with your requirements.
The system below compromises a special telescopic probe for use in labs with restricted headroom.
Specification:
- Diameter to suit LHe storage dewar or magnet system
- Length to suit system
- Base temperature <260 mK for >50 hours (no heat load applied)
- Cooling power <300 mK for >6 hours with 400mW applied heat load
- Stability below 1.2 K <±3 mK
- ³He regeneration time 50 mins
All specifications and dimensions can be adjusted to suit a user's needs. For more details please contact us.
Top Loading Probes (Oxford Instruments compatible)
Product Code: 3ICEPR
A superior probe, designed to suit other manufacturers' existing top loading ³He systems modular approach to top housing assembly for easy modification. All types of wiring, co-ax and wave guides are available on request. As well as a range of sample holders, we have two standard types as well as vacuum can, or a rotator mechanism (see model).
Sample in UHV ³He Insert
Product Code: 3ICETL UHV
A top-loading ³He system, the sample on probe (PRICE3) loads into the insert, down to the UHV chamber which is specially designed for STM work. Thermal contact to the cold source, surface of the liquid, is made with the use of a high purity copper thermal link.
Fast and easy sample changing using a top-loading probe (PRICE3) for a range of probe wiring and manipulator options.
Specification:
- Length to suit system
- Base temperature <300 mK for >40 hours (no heat load applied)
- Cooling power <320 mK for >6 hours with 400mW applied heat load
- Stability below 1.2 K <±3 mK
- 3He regeneration time 50 mins
All specifications and dimensions can be adjusted to suit a user's needs. For more details please contact us.
