The E6500 Mini High Vacuum Evaporator is designed to meet TEM, SEM and general carbon and metal coating applications.

Benefits:
The E6500 combines advantages of large evaporation systems (e.g. optimum sample to source working distance, ability to adjust evaporation angle) with the benefits of compact systems (small footprint, rapid pumping, easy to use and maintain).

Carbon and metal evaporation made easy.
At the heart of the E6500 is an easy to access horizontally mounted vacuum chamber and hinged access door with a large viewing window. Mounting the evaporation sources on the chamber radius.

The E6500 is fitted with dual thermal evaporation sources (metal and carbon) conveniently mounted on a cartridge style assembly which allows easy removal for exchanging and adjusting evaporation sources. Both carbon and metal sources are supplied with easy to remove metal shields which maintain vacuum chamber cleanliness and direct evaporants toward the sample stage. To aid chamber cleaning two easy to remove vacuum chamber liners are fitted.

The sample stage and large source shutter are located on the hinged chamber door, giving unsurpassed access for sample exchange. Adjustment of evaporation angle stage is by an external control knob, making the E6500 ideal for TEM shadowing and replication techniques.

Rapid Pumping
The turbo vacuum system is automatic in operation and is either pumping or venting. The automatic vent function also has a manual override to prevent excessive use of the vent gas (N2 if used). A further vacuum facility is the standard ability to run the turbo pump at half or 'Standby speed'.
A 50 litre per minute rotary pump (not included: see "options") is required to "back" the turbomolecular pump.
Individual analogue metering of backing and high vacuum pressures and evaporation current are included.
