Complaining about the cost of small Swiss companies is not appropriate on the Rietveld list ☺
On Facebook it would be automatically censored by BB … I have the same heater, and once you calibrate it is quite stable and precise. Destroying the samples is more expensive in the industry than in our labs … Radovan Cerny Laboratoire de Cristallographie, DQMP Université de Genève 24, quai Ernest-Ansermet CH-1211 Geneva 4, Switzerland Phone : [+[41] 22] 37 964 50, FAX : [+[41] 22] 37 961 08 mailto : radovan.ce...@unige.ch URL : http://www.unige.ch/sciences/crystal/cerny/rcerny.htm De : alan.he...@gmail.com [mailto:alan.he...@gmail.com] De la part de Alan Hewat Envoyé : vendredi 3 juillet 2015 12:15 À : Yaroslav Filinchuk UCL Cc : SAJ Kimber; rietveld_l@ill.fr Objet : Re: Cyberstar hot air blowers 2000 CHF? Precise temperature control is essential since often you will want to work near transitions where you risk destroying your sample. That also costs. _____________________________________________________ From my mobile telephone Dr Alan Hewat, NeutronOptics, Grenoble, FRANCE <alan.he...@neutronoptics.com<mailto:alan.he...@neutronoptics.com>> +33.476.98.41.68 http://www.NeutronOptics.com/hewat _____________________________________________________ On 3 Jul 2015 11:38, "Yaroslav Filinchuk UCL" <yaroslav.filinc...@uclouvain.be<mailto:yaroslav.filinc...@uclouvain.be>> wrote: Hello Simon, we are successfully using a programmable hot air blower (25-750°C) called Le Mini Sensor Kit 800, from the Swiss company Leister. It costs about 2000 CHF, and is aimed at the industrial use. It allows to do ramps, it follows the protocol very closely, but the temperatures and real ramp rates have to be calibrated.

Those made by Cyberstar seem to have become prohibitively expensive. Does anyone know of a competing supplier? best wishes, Simon -- --------------------------------------------- Dr. Simon A.J.
