PPMS (Quantum Design)

Quantum Design PPMS® represents a unique concept in laboratory equipment: an open architecture, variable temperature-field system, designed to perform a variety of automated measurements. Use the PPMS  with options designed for it or easily adapt it to your own experiments. Sample environment controls include fields up to ± 16 Tesla and temperature range of 1.9 - 400 K. Its advanced expandable design combines many features in one instrument to make the PPMS  the most versatile system of its kind.

PPMS Features:

• Sealed sample chamber with 2.6 cm diameter sample access
• Novel sample mounts couple easily to the 12 electrical leads built into the cryostat insert
• The Model 6000 is a self contained microprocessor-controlled device, eliminating the need to use or purchase external bridges, current or voltage sources or lock-in amplifiers.
• Continuous Low-Temperature Control - maintains temperature below 4.2 K for indefinite periods of time and offers smooth temperature transitions when warming and cooling through the 4.2 K.
• Temperature Sweep Mode
• User Experiments - External instruments may be controlled automatically using Visual C++, Delphi or Visual Basic in our Windows-based MultiVu control software. Click here for more details. In addition, our Grapher utility displays

PPMS Magnetic Options:

• Select from 7, 9, 14 & 16 Tesla magnets.
• Or order a system with no magnet, and add a magnet when needed.
• A split-coil 7 Tesla transverse magnet is also available.
