Airlock

PP3004 QuickLok from Quorum Technologies

The PP3004 airlock QuickLok has been designed for rapid sample launching at room temperature in an SEM, FIB/SEM etc. and for sample transport under vacuum or inert gas. The lock needs a free flange space and can be individually adapted to the existing system.

Features
  • Fast sample exchange
  • Vacuum and inert gas transfer
  • Optional upgrade to PP3006 Coollok
  • Custom-designed sample holders available
  • 3-year warranty

Further information

The PP3004 QuickLok consists of three components:

  • The sample port is mounted to a suitable, customized flange. QuickLok PP3004 consists of a chamber with integrated controllers for pumps, venting and transfer and connections to the pump and ventilation system.
  • The compact vacuum transfer chamber has a bayonet fitting with a sample holder with dovetail profile (shuttle). Standard sample holders are included. A wide range of optional holders allow the adaptation to different samples.
  • The sample stage of the SEM chamber is retrofitted with a special table adapter for receiving sample holders. Further included is an LED light chamber, which is mounted on the inside of the QuickLok. The light turns on automatically when the sample is transferred.
