We also installed a scroll pump instead of an oil one. <a href="https://www.emsdiasum.com/microscopy/products/equipment/turbo_evaporator.aspx#3380" class="OWAAutoLink" id="LPlnk417976" previewremoved="true">https://www.emsdiasum.com/microscopy/products/equipment/turbo_evaporator.aspx#3380</a></p>

<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">It can store a bunch of programs and you can quickly change heads to attach other targets, such as platinum, gold, carbon, etc. It uses standard size rods and coats beautifully. I highly recommend it. As do the GloQube. </p>

<p style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0">Our lab bought the GloQube from EMS. We got a good deal and we also installed it with an oil-less pump (scroll pump), different than the one they recommend for the system. It takes a little bit of time to pump down,
but our samples are super clean. </p>

<p style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0"><span style="font-size:12pt">This system is used by both bio and mat sci folks use it. M</span><span style="font-size:12pt">at sci and physicists have an extremely low tolerance for contamination in their samples</span><span style="font-size:12pt">,
so scroll pumps prevent oil bits from ending up on your grid. One side of the system cleans (the blue side) and the other (red) can be hooked up to anything you'd want to apply to your grids, like an amine or other substrate. </span><br>
