Dear community,
The plastic bath of our Talos Arctica cassette loading station has developed serious cracks and thus leaks the LN2 through the insulation onto the table.
As the unit has not been abused in any way, I assume that other people might have encountered similar problems.
I would be interested in your solutions to the problem. We have used plastic bag between the insulation and the cracked plastic vessel to reduce the leak, but that doesn't seem to provide a long term (or even mid term) solution.
Best regards,
Pasi
