Hirst has added a high temperature small sample kit to its best selling PFM08-10 product range. The small sample kit is capable of testing samples as small as 1x1x1mm at temperatures up to 150℃ – this is via a SHS-05-HT stick that can be added to the small sample kit (SHS-05-kit). One of the main uses for this is in grain boundary diffusion (GBD) magnet development and testing.
This is part of the revision 2 hardware platform which features the lowest electrical noise levels achieved on Hirst PFMs so far and this allows the small signals from small samples to be measured precisely even at high temperatures.
