Introducing the Vacu Prep II, the SPI Supplies high vacuum evaporator. The Vacu Prep II is a fast, clean, high vacuum bench top evaporator with simple automated operation for evaporation of metals of materials. It utilizes solid state electronics to control the pump down, evaporation, and venting sequences. Safe, reliable and easy to maintain, the Vacu Prep II can be used for routine carbon coating or the evaporation of various metals and materials. The interactive touch pad screen allows easy control of all systems. No need to remember if you opened or closed a valve; the screen allows you to monitor and run the system manually, or runs automatically to achieve the desired vacuum.
With its turbo molecular pump, the Vacu Prep II can achieve excellent base vacuum levels in a short period of time. Typical pump down cycles (10-5) are achieved in under 10 minutes for a typical carbon coating on TEM grids. Use of the liquid nitrogen trap increases the rate of pump down to even higher vacuum.
Typical Applications:
- Electron Microscopy Sample Preparation
- High-Vacuum Carbon Coating for TEM and X-Ray Analysis
- Resistance Evaporation of Metallic Compounds
- Carbon Support Films
- Carbon Platinum Replicas
- Rotary Shadowing
