Thermoelectric cooling stage enables cooling without use of liquid nitrogen
-40°C to 120°C
Gas-tight chamber *Vacuum-tight model available (TP102V)
Instec's TP102G/TP102V thermoelectric (Peltier) based stage offers gas-tight/vacuum-tight capabilities that can provide cooling to -40°C without using liquid nitrogen. This simplifies the system setup, reduces operating costs, and makes it a convenient choice for performing long duration experiments at low temperatures.
The TP102G is a lower cost option for controlling the atmosphere when vacuum is not required.
The TP102V with vacuum chamber capability is ideal for freeze drying samples under microscope.
