[3dem] small chillers

[Wim Hagen]

Hi,

My experiences with any air cooled chillers in EM are utterly bad, regardless what room they are in.
The moment you run into any microscope problem, the microscope vendor will blame the room temperature stability and/or acoustics, and your HVAC people will blame the chiller. 
If your camera gain refs become unstable, your camera vendor will blame your HVAC people.

What’s the root-problem that makes you consider to connect a camera to a separate chiller vs keeping it connected to the microscope chiller?

Best,

We are thinking about connecting one of our cameras to a chiller separate from the microscope chiller, but I am worried about both the noise affecting instrument performance and the heat output overloading the cooling system in an old building.  Any thoughts and/or suggestions would be useful.  Thanks.
