TSA02i
Hot and Cold Stage for Inverted Microscopes

 
The TSA02i, Peltier Based Thermal Stage, creates an ideal temperature-controlled environment for the inverted microscopes. It features a large sample chamber, simple thermal control, improved atmospheric control, wide adjustable viewing window, and customizable base plate.

The TSA02i’s sample chamber can accommodate specimens and slides up to 2" X 3". The peltier thermal unit both heats and cools without the need for an expensive chiller or a supply of liquid nitrogen. The lid allows for precision temperature control, gas purge, and atmospheric control. Purge gas is pre-heated/cooled before entering the sample chamber for improved thermal performance. The lid windows are defrosted for low temperature operation, and ports are available for the user’s own atmospheric sensors (e.g. CO2, humidity, etc.). The viewing aperture can be a 40mm wide window or replaced with smaller windows for better thermal operation. In addition an inner lid is available for even better thermal uniformity. The TSA02i base plate is removable
and replaceable. It can be customized to fit your specific microscope stage.

TSA02i is an ideal solution for applications such as Cell Culture, Biology, and Thermal Microscopy for inverted microscopes.
