A complete system
Both PP2000 and PP2000T require two 90 l/m rotary pumps plus
interface plates and SEM stage adapters specific to the microscope (contact Quorum Technologies for details).
We also strongly recommend the optional PP7450 pressurised Dewar for generating
Nitrogen gas.
In order to manufacture it is vital we have the following information:
1. Make and model of SEM
2. Location of SED, BSE, WDS/EDS (if fitted)
3. Voltage and frequency requirements.
