Closed cycle refrigerator for 7.4T closed-cycle cryomagnet
Heliplex closed-cycle refrigerator

Closed-cycle refrigerator for 7.4T closed-cycle cryomagnet

Ancillaries code: CF-4

Used on:
Echidna and Wombat (Powder Diffractometer)
Taipan and Sika (3-Axis)
Pelican (Time-of-Flight Polarisation-Analysis Spectrometer)

A new 4K-300K refrigerator (indicated by the arrow) was purchased in late 2006 to replace the older CF-7 Heliplex cryofridge. It will mainly be used in conjunction with the VM-1 7.4T Green magnet. Samples are mounted via 4x M3 tapped holes on a 25.4mm diameter PCD

Cryocooler

Ancillaries code: CF-5

Used on:
Echidna and Wombat (Powder Diffraction)
Pelican (Time-of-Flight Polarisation Analysis Spectrometer)
Taipan and Sika (3-Axis)

A Cryocooler for use with a Eulerian cradle allows texture measurements on samples in the temperature range 10K to 300K.
