[3dem] Nitrogen generator to provide dry nitrogen for cryo FIB-SEM

[Christiane Riedel]

Dear all,

We recently came across some machines that extract nitrogen directly from air which, at least when reading the specs, should provide dry nitrogen of sufficient amounts and purity for an Aquilos2. The machines we checked are the CLAIND Nitro 35 / 70 in combination with the Olympia A200 compressor. Do some of you have experience with these kind of machines for FIB-SEMs and would be willing to share them? If it is a feasible solution, great, but we are a bit sceptical 😊.

Thanks a lot for your input and help and sorry for the spam in case this subject was already treated before in this list.

Best regards
Christiane
