Cooling Disc for Cryostats

Cooling Disc for Cryostats


The cooling disc for cryostats is a core component in cryogenic systems such as dilution refrigerators. It acts as a heat exchanger that efficiently transfers thermal energy between the He³ and He⁴ cooling circuits. This function is essential in low-temperature research, quantum physics, and superconductivity studies.

Manufactured from high-purity copper or specialized copper alloys, the cooling disc features high thermal conductivity, mechanical stability, and vacuum compatibility. It is precisely tailored to specific customer requirements and integrated into the overall cryostat design.

Applications

Heat transfer in He³-He⁴ dilution cooling circuits.

Use in quantum physics experiments.

Stabilization of superconducting systems through efficient heat dissipation.

Applications requiring temperatures near absolute zero.

Key Manufacturing Features
