Congratulations! You have purchased a precision vacuum positioning device from Nor-Cal Products. This unit is capable of many years of use with minimal care and maintenance. This manual is a tool to aid you in obtaining this service. We at Nor-Cal Products encourage your comments and suggestions on this manual. Product Description The MLR and MLRC Series magnetically coupled rotary/linear feedthroughs are a series of all metal devices suitable for sample transfer and similar needs.
Installation: The feedthrough is UHV clean and can be installed directly from the crate. As usual, care should be exercised to protect the flange knife-edge. The standard unit mounts to a 2.75” OD flange (other flanges are available as required). These units are designed for horizontal or near horizontal applications. Depending on the specific application, and options selected, they may be used in all orientations. Consult the factory for specific considerations.
Bakeout Procedure: ********** WARNING ********* HIGH MAGNETIC FIELDS. DO NOT PUT YOUR FINGERS BETWEEN THE MAGNET ASSEMBLY AND MAGNETIC MATERIALS. ALWAYS WEAR SAFETY GLASSES WHEN AROUND EXPOSED RARE EARTH MAGNETS Magnet assembly removal will expose the rare earth magnets. If a magnet chips, such as during handling, the chip particle may be expelled at high speed by the field. Although the particle may be small, it does pose a danger of eye damage. DO NOT DROP THE MAGNET ASSEMBLY.
