VTC200-GBII Dual-Chamber Glove Box with Integrated Spin Coater and Gas Purification System
The VTC200-GBII is engineered to facilitate the preparation of highly sensitive materials, such as perovskite solar cells, by providing an ultra-clean environment with oxygen and moisture levels maintained below 1 ppm. This is achieved through a dual-chamber glove box design that incorporates a dedicated recessed compartment for a spin coater, allowing precise thin film deposition without exposure to ambient contaminants.
The glove box chamber is constructed from stainless steel 304 with tempered double-layer laminated safety glass, ensuring durability and operator safety. It includes built-in fluorescent lighting and two adjustable shelves for flexible workspace organization. The integrated gas purification system automatically purges and regenerates to maintain the stringent low oxygen and humidity conditions required for advanced material processing.
Key Features
- Dual-chamber glove box with openable tempered glass window panel for safe and ergonomic operation.
- Gas purification system maintaining O2 and H2O levels below 1 ppm with automatic purging and regeneration.
- Recessed spin coater compartment (314 mm ID x 455 mm depth) with two feed-throughs for power and vacuum connections.
- Spin coater components made of polypropylene to resist corrosive solutions, suitable for delicate coating processes.
- Programmable spin speed range from 500 to 8000 RPM with six segments for precise control.
- Vacuum chuck diameter of 100 mm accommodates substrates up to 6 inches in diameter.
- Standard inclusion of a filter to prevent wastewater from entering the vacuum pump.
