ICE CP 20mK Cold Probe
The ICE CP 20mK Cold Probe is a dilution insert aimed at achieving fast sample turnaround times at millikelvin temperatures.
THE ICE CP 20mK is compatible with both top loading systems into a VTI or continuous flow systems. When paired with an ICE cryostat, the probe can utilise dual-cool technology for an automated cooldown, requiring minimum input from the user during probe changes.

ISIS Team, Rutherford Appleton Labs
ICEoxford have supplied the ISIS facility at Rutherford Appleton Laboratory with 3 working systems to date, these are 1K continuous flow liquid helium inserts that complement our 4K top-loading closed-cycle refrigerator equipment base. The 1K inserts are loaded into the sample chamber and with the aid of a low-loss transfer line, easily achieve continuous temperatures of 1.25K. The build quality and design. I found to be very good on the equipment we have purchased.
I have also purchased two replacement dilution units from ICE that fit a prominent low-temperature companies inserts, we have tested one of these units here and achieved a base temperature of 50mK, the units were built without sintered silver stepped heat exchangers at our request hence the achieved temperature; amongst other items we have countless helium transfer siphons also built by ICE to our own specification.
Presently, I have a cryostat that is being overhauled; that will be fitted with an ICE variable temperature insert capable of a range of temperatures between 1.5K - 300K, again we have chosen ICE for this project because they offer a quality product and I am less than satisfied that the original builders of this system can offer the same quality.
I have conducted business with ICE since their early days and ym confidence in them as company growm, I have found them to be very price competitive and good quality company.
