Pressure cells and devices for small angle neutron scattering
The SANS beamlines use specialized pressure cells that are optimized for the specific SANS geometry and science questions.
Dome cells: The dome style pressure cells can achieve 1kbar of pressure with CO2, CH4, He, N2 and Ar gases. The dome cells have heating rod temperature control up to 200°C with a manifold for mixing gases.
Extended McHugh pressure cells: The McHugh pressure cell can achieve a pressure of 2 kbar for CO2, CH4, He, N2 and Ar, with water bath temperature control from 10-80°C. The cell body end section is optimized to achieve a pressure cell with an extended angle pressure.
