Mechanically Refrigerated Thermal Platforms for testing where Liquid Nitrogen is not practical. Several sizes are available. There are two different configurations with different lower temperature ranges. Single stage refrigeration systems designated SC are simpler and capable of temperatures as cold as -40°. Ultra cold systems are designated SCC. They have cascade refrigeration systems which are a little slower and more expensive but capable of temperatures at least as cold as -70°C. More information on types of mechanically cooled platforms.
The unique embedded copper tube cooling channel concept designed by TotalTemp, integrated with a high-density arrangement of long-life durable AC cartridge heaters, provides a comprehensive system able to deliver hot and cold temperature cycling and conditioning on demand. With extremely accurate temperature uniformity and minimal thermal gradients at temperature, TTI has truly created “The Next Generation in Performance” at a price you can handle.
All TotalTemp, single-stage Mechanically Refrigerated products are designed to operate between -40°C and +175°C with a single-stage compressor.
Two-stage systems are designed to achieve -70°C.
Models are available of the single-stage SC49-N and SC144-N system can cool the 7.5″ x 6.5″ or 12” square surface from +120°C to -40°C in less than 8 minutes. That’s an average of better than 20 degrees per minute for the whole transition from hot to cold.
Cascade refrigeration systems that cool to -70°C are typically a little slower.

Flowmeter comes with a press lock fitting and 12 feet of tubing. For use with gas sources with regulated pressure.
Panel Mount Flow Meter
Flowmeter can be panel mounted. Installed in 19″ rack, benchtop controller, or on purge cover.
