Closed Cycle Cryostat
This advanced Para-Hydrogen Generator will meet all your needs ranging from high-resolution NMR studies all the way to clinical trials.
This system allows cooling to liquid helium temperatures without the use of cryogens. The only requirements are water cooling for the compressor.
​
Optional Items for this unit are:
Complete Vacuum Pumping System (Required for system operation - User can use their own if available):
-
Two stage, Rotary Vane, Vacuum Pump 5.5 m3/hr.,
-
1 Meter stainless bellows Hose.
-
Vacuum Gauge, thermocouple.
-
Vacuum valve with backfill feature
-
Oil back streaming trap.
-
Oil Mist Eliminator.
A Turbo Pump system is also available.
CoolPac System:
Provides air cooling to the ARS-4HW compressor's water cooling loop
Advance Research Systems (ARS) Closed Cycle Cryostat Para-Hydrogen Generator
Highly Recommended: Storage and Distribution System
The ARS Para-hydrogen generator has a 2 hour start up and 2 hour shut down time. This may not be ideal for daily operations using this system. By using our Storage and Distribution system, the user can focus on producing and storing Para-hydrogen early in the week, then use the gas stored in the 2 gas cylinders of the distribution system for experimentation for the remainder of the week.
Key Features:
Up to 99% Para-Hydrogen Enrichment
-
Crysostat cooling in 2 stages.
-
Catalytic Chamber packed with Iron Oxide or Charcoal Catalyst.
-
Operated with Ultra High Purity Hydrogen Gas (>99.999%).
-
Operating Pressure: Up to 500 -750 PSI
-
Flow Rate: Up to 4 Standard Liters Per Minute
-
Different Configurations and Equipment Options Available.
-
Robust and User Friendly Operation. Can Operate in any orientation.
-
Consumable Cost Efficiency enabled by closed cycle operation of Liquid Helium.
