Heavy-Duty Sample Transporter Support Structures
- Airside Protection: Avoid damage from user accidents and provide necessary support for long manipulators.
- Increased Longevity: Protecting the manipulator tube ensures a longer lifetime for your sample transporter.
Why is a Sample Transporter Support needed?
The Ferrovac Sample Transporter performs best and has the longest lifespan if it is properly supported.
Heavy-duty sample transporters are often very long. This means that the manipulator is often too heavy to be supported by the mounting flange connection or the welding seams without leading to damage or leaks over time.The Ferrovac tube support for the heavy-duty sample transorter can be mounted directly to the framing of the UHV chamber or the system itself, relieving stress from the mounting flange connection.

Support Type:
Each magnetically coupled manipulator type has a corresponding support type.
For both single- and dual-shaft heavy-duty sample transporters, the support type is RM.Options:
Individually Mounted Supports
Two sturdy rods can be individually mounted to the framing of the UHV system. Support lengths can be chosen individually for each rod with the paramters (X) and (Y).Support with Belt Drive
This version is for applications of long manipulators where the magnetic coupling may not always be easy to reach for the user.
The belt drive support creates a rigid support structure for the manipulator, while simultaneously allowing for comfortable transfer by hand wheel right next to the mounting flange.Connect with the Ferrovac Sales team for expert advice.
