TS1000V, TS1200V, TS1500V

Our range of temperature and environmentally controlled vacuum chambers from ambient to 1500°C

Based on the highly successful TS series of high temperature stages, Linkam’s TS1000V, TS1200V, and TS1500V have been modified to support a vacuum down to 10⁻³ mbar and is based on a ceramic heater with a temperature range of ambient to 1500°C.

The vacuum is achieved by using a simple 2.5L rotary vacuum pump with the pressure measured directly on the vacuum chamber using a Pirani vacuum gauge. By adding the optional MV196 motorised valve, pressure can be quickly and accurately controlled.

Samples are quickly characterised by heating to within a few degrees of the required temperature at a high rate, then slowed down to a few tenths of a degree per minute to closely examine sample changes. Our LINK software can be used to control the entire experiment and additionally allows the experimental data to be charted or exported for further analysis.

A system requires a TS-V stage and a T96-S temperature controller, which is available with either LINK software for computer control, or a LinkPad touch screen for stand-alone control, as well as a Pirani vacuum gauge. The optional MV196 motorised valve adds vacuum control.

TS1000V, TS1200V, and TS1500V stages supporting different sample sizes are available, as are versions with electrical connections in the sample chamber. Please see our Vacuum Stages brochure and Electrical and Probe brochure for more information. The TS1400XY is suitable for high temperature analysis with sample manipulation.
