Additional Tools

Built-in anti-condensation protection to 50 °C for pure vapor sorption

De-mountable DryLoader for loading air sensitive samples. The system can hold a rough vacuum to remove the majority of air prior to filling with inert gas to improve purity of the resulting atmosphere

Argon filled glove box (MBraun) for handling and transferring air sensitive samples
