Upright Microscope XY Hot / Cold Stage Ø26mm Gas-Tight

This gas-tight heating and cooling stage provides -190°C - 600°C and is ideal for upright optical microscopy and spectroscopy including FTIR, Raman, and X-ray. The gas-tight stage is designed for applications where a wide temperature range and control over the atmosphere are critical. The gas-tight chamber provides a sealed environment for gas purge to avoid condensation or oxidation, or for controlled humidity studies. A low working distance of 5mm makes the HCS621GXY compatible with a wide range of optical systems, often without the need to add long working distance objectives. Integrated sample XY can be used to move the sample across the thermal block without repositioning the thermal stage.
