Description
Circular entry load-lock systems allow quick and easy loading or unloading of samples between connected vacuum chambers without breaking the main system vacuum. Samples are loaded onto the magnetically coupled transporter through a quickaccess door on the spherical sample staging chamber. Loading can be monitored through the viewport located directly above the access door. After the transfer chamber has been evacuated to the desired vacuum level the chamber load-lock valve is opened for sample transfer into the main system chamber. The sample can be moved from 12 to 36 linear inches, depending on transporter model installed. Sample positioning is controlled by sliding an external actuator housing, fitted with permanent magnets, which magnetically couples with the transporter rod inside the sample chamber. These transporters are UHV compatible and fitted with a linear bearing shaft support. To prevent sample rotation, an optional transporter guide rod can be installed. Optional transporter alignment gimbals provide compensation for chamber port misalignment and other minor system imperfections. Transporter alignment gimbals must be purchased separately.

 

The back side of circular entry loadlock systems are fitted with an auxiliary 2-3/4" Del-Seal™ CF port for attachment of other vacuum hardware. This port is shipped blanked-off and is available for customer hardware installation. Just below and to the left of this port is a 1-1/3" Del-Seal™ CF port used for the installation of an up to air valve.

The quick-access door swings clear for sample entry and removal. The tip of the magnetic transporter is accessible through this door and is shown here with a Cab-Fast® sample handling fork. The Viton® elastomer seal is mounted to the chamber face. High temperature Kalrez® elastomer seals can be purchased separately to increase the system’s bakeout temperature to 200°C.

This is the LLC-112 circular entry loadlock system, which is specifically designed for 1-3/8" or smaller sample diameters. The quick-access door on these miniature load-lock systems has been redesigned with a 2.00" aperture to allow easy sample entry and removal. All load-lock systems are sold standard with UHV rated magnetic transporters.
