DESCRIPTION
Instec's HCS302XY Hot and Cold stage offers a temperature-controlled environment that is an ideal choice for optical microscopy and other applications requiring optical access to the sample. Top and bottom dual pane windows on the HCS302XY stage are removable and exchangeable to meet a range of spectroscopic needs. The stage can be mounted vertically, allowing horizontal beam access to the sample chamber. The HCS302XY is large enough to accommodate a variety of samples, including electro-optic devices and standard 25mm x 75 mm microscope slides. An optional inner thermal cover is also included for work requiring ultra-high temperature stability and uniformity.
Choose from a variety of base-model add-ons such as IR windows, Liquid crystal cell holders, or active sample cooling systems, or upgrade to the HCS302+ model to customize the stage with special options such as increased transmission aperture size, customized covers, and much more!
The open construction of the HCS302XY is convenient for side-loading glass slide smaples, but does not offer extensive protection against condensation when cooling, nor does it support inert gas purge to protect volatile samples.
The HCS302XY offers exceptional versatility at an excellent price!
