The 915 Double Tilt Liquid Nitrogen Cryo Transfer Holder is designed for low temperature transfer and subsequent tomographic recording of electron beam sensitive, frozen hydrated specimens in the TEM.

Key Features
ToggleTilt™ beta drive mechanism

Robust operation with no mechanical binding of the specimen cradle at tilt limits
Maximum +/- 30º using TEM control
Maximum +/- 45º using Accutroller
Frost-free specimen transfer

Light weight cryo workstation provides low temperature specimen loading to protect the frozen hydrated grid
One piece cryo shield encapsulates the frozen hydrated grid providing protection against damage caused by warming and frost formation during transfer from the workstation to the electron microscope
Hexring® clamping system

Gently and securely holds the specimen in place
Analytical Design

Hexring® and washers are made of beryllium for analytical applications
Precise Temperature Control

Temperature of the holder tip is monitored by a calibrated silicon diode which provides a sensitive, linear temperature response
The conductor rod connecting the specimen holder tip to the liquid nitrogen dewar contains an electric heater to control the specimen temperature
Tilt ranges and compatibility of specimen holders vary according to the TEM manufacturer, model, pole piece gap, and the presence of in-gap accessories. Please contact your local Gatan representative for more information.
