Ideal Vacuum Cube 12 x 12 inch Thermally Isolated TVAC Chamber Plate with Cooling Tubes for LN2 and Resistive Heating for Extreme Temperatures with Type-K Thermocouple

This is a thermally isolated Ideal Vacuum Cube 12 x 12 inch TVAC plate for extreme temperatures. It has 1/2” OD stainless steel vacuum isolated fluid tubes with Swagelok® fittings for circulating hot or cold fluids, including LN₂. The plate also has embedded resistive heating elements for elevated temperatures. The heaters operate at 100-240 VAC and have heating power of 1050 W at 240 VAC, and 263 W at 120 VAC. The operating temperature range of this plate is 200°C to -200°C (392°F to -328°F). A Type-K thermocouple is mounted through a KF-16 port for logging temperature data or for a user supplied setpoint controller to use. The KF-40 port is used to connect the heating elements to an outboard controller, such as the Ideal Vacuum PID Plug & Play Heater Control System. This chamber plate is designed to occupy minimal volume within the Cube envelope and may be mounted in any orientation.

The temperature controlled area on the vacuum side of this chamber plate (the platen) is 10.275" x 10.275" and made of 304L stainless steel. The platen has a standard optical breadboard with ¼-20 tapped holes on a 1” grid for mounting objects and fixtures.

This Cube plate allows the Ideal Vacuum Cube to be used as a thermal vacuum or thermal shock vacuum chamber. It can also function as a chilled trap for chemical and high boiling point liquids. Multiple TVAC plates may be mounted to a Cube and plumbed together to enhance temperature control capability.

Fluid is commonly supplied by a circulating fluid chiller such as those made by Thermo Scientific, Neslab, and Huber, or from a user's bulk LN₂ tank. Insulated supply and return hoseswith 1/2" OD tube ends are used to connect the chilled fluid lines.
