The Model HE-3-SSV-PT-2 is a single shot, cryogen-free, helium-3 cryostat for cooling samples in vacuum. It uses a two-stage pulse tube refrigerator (PTR) for initial system cool down.
Highly conductive flexible thermal links made from multiple strands of fine OFHC copper wires are used as thermal link between the two stages of PTR and both radiation shields. This design significantly reduces the vibrations that may be transmitted to the He-3 stage from the PTR.
Mechanical heat switches are used for the system operations.
An internal charcoal sorption pump is used to reduce the vapor pressure of the liquid He-3 and cool it down to its base temperature.
With our optimized design of the heat exchanger on the second stage regenerator of PTR, no additional compressor is needed for He-3 condensation.
The system is supplied with a complete set of thermometers and heaters to monitor and control the temperature of the various stages of the cryostat.
It also includes all the necessary valves and pressure gauges for safe and reliable system operation.

- The I3 and I3S Inline Controllers provide overdrive strobe and continuous operation to lights from a small package when larger, more versatile external controllers are not necessary.
- Switching between continuous-on, gating on/off and strobe overdrive is seamless. The I3 and I3S employ Ai’s exclusive Adaptive OverdriveTM that optimizes strobe power regardless of input Pulse Width.
- The I3 is a default-on device on power-up, whereas the I3S is a default-off device, requiring a trigger to illuminate.
- All ICS models employ reverse input polarity protection.
- Provides continuous-on and DC gating on/off control as well as 0-10 volt analog dimming. 30 uSec response time.
- A wash down version of all ICS drivers is provided automatically with any wash down light to which it is attached.
- 0 – 100% Intensity Control with optional DCS-MP, purchased separately, will provide manual intensity control via an external potentiometer.
