SideKick Magnet Ready
Supplier :

- Ultra-High Vacuum.
- Superconducting 3D Helmholtz coil
- Plenty of cooling power
The SideKick offer huge sample space under UHV, with surfaces outgassed before cool-down. Avoiding sample and windows getting covered with ice and allow to stay cold longer.


The SideKick mounts the cryocooler directly to the floor, removing energy and freeing up table space
ABOUT
SYSTEM FEATURES
Ready for your SuperConducting Magnet

UHV Cryogenic workspace integrated directly into existing optical setups. Cryocooler energy is shunted away from table into the floor. Works with 12″ to 37″ thick optical tables
Standard SideKick Features
The mechanical excitation from the cryocooler and vacuum pumps is moved off the table by using the proprietary SideKick tower mounted to the floor next to the table
Larger Platform With Low footprint
A 250mm diameter cold plate
Only what you need is on your optical table, the cold head and pumps are offset to throw vibrations to the ground rather than on your setup
Larger Cooling Power
Low vibration platform with copious feedthroughs and optical access, and plenty of cooling power to handle superconducting magnets and <4K inserts
Unparallel field uniformity
A Helmholtz coil is a device for producing a region of nearly uniform magnetic field
Easily Customizable
A 250mm diameter cold plate include eight interface blocks. Three are used for the three axis power lugs, one for 24 pin user general connections, and the other four are available for 24DC, 48DC, or quad RF connections

“Congrats Four Nine Design on building a stellar line of (truly) low vibration cryostats. We hard bolted this Renaissance Scientific STM to the 4K plate. Four Nine Design is one of the RARE companies that understands that 'low vibrations' doesn't just mean low displacements on their own cold finger. Accelerations are much more pertinent. Four Nine Design gets this and we love them for it.”
“We love Four Nine Design cryostats. Most cryostat vendors get their UHV for free from cryo pumping, so they take liberties with greases, and varnishes, and other swamp algae that should never be there. Not FND. They get to UHV by baking, so before any cryo pumping. The Ren-Sci UHV magnet has a natural home here. If you open your cryostat and it smells, that's a swamp vessel. Never happens with 49 cryostats. UHV clean! »

When we launched Qnity, Four9 was the first manufacturer that came to mind. We had spent months admiring their cryostats in our spare time, and now we are proud to represent their exceptional products.
Through our numerous visits to laboratories, we quickly understood that space is a critical concern for users. Traditional cryostats with high cooling power, a 250mm sample space, and a 3D magnet often occupy an entire optical table and a significant portion of the lab.
Four9 addresses this issue by offering all these features without requiring any lab reconfiguration. The SideKick magnet system installs conveniently on the edge of your optical table, delivering performance without the bulk.
With the SideKick architecture, the cold head and side tower are positioned on the floor. This design keeps unwanted vibratory energy from the closed-cycle cryocooler away from the table, allowing it to float freely on pneumatic feet.
