Mechanics and Cryogenics

  • NOTCam uses a combination of static LN2 cooling and a pulse tube refrigerator (crycooler) or PTR. The PTR is manufactured by Iwatani consisting of the CW303 compressor, the M101 rotary valve and the S050 PTR cold head. This combination is rated to lift 10W at 75 Kelvin.
