SD-800C thermal evaporation carbon coater with vacuum pump

SD-800C Carbon Coater (Thermal Evaporation) for SEM

SD-800C is a carbon coater ideal for SEM sample preparation. It evaporates carbon rope to apply a thin conductive carbon film on a sample surface. Applying this coating is an effective preparation technique for diminishing charge-up electron artifacts for analysis in a SEM. Its streamlined design minimizes costs while fully meeting coating needs. It can promptly reach its working vacuum pressure within 5 minutes with a proper vacuum pump. It’s user friendly and easy to operate. The package includes a vacuum pump.

Key Features

Carbon rope evaporation: Deposits a thin conductive carbon film that reduces charging in SEM.

Two carbon rope positions: Switch between carbon rope A and B from the front panel.

Adjustable heating current: Set the heating current with the front-panel dial, up to 100 A.

Fast pump-down: Reaches working pressure within 5 minutes; working pressure 4–6 Pa.

Compact desktop unit: 340 × 390 × 300 mm with a scratch-resistant quartz glass chamber.

Cost-effective and easy to use: A streamlined design that keeps costs down, with simple front-panel operation.
