Cryostat design and manufacture are critical; cryostats must perform exactly as intended. IRLabs has worked with clients around the world to deliver cryogenic systems that meet the most exacting specifications. From designing and manufacturing the complicated dewar at the heart of the Large Binocular Telescope at Mt. Graham in Arizona to retrofitting a cryo-free refrigerator for NASA’s Mid-IR Spectrometer and Imager (MIRSI), IRLabs has a proven track record.
IRLabs has more than 50 years of proven expertise in supplying flexible, cost-effective standard and semi-custom cryostats for successful operation in a wide variety of low-temperature applications including IR detection and imaging, focal point array testing, low-temperature physics experiments, and OEM integration.

Why Choose Cryostats from IRLabs?

Selecting Liquid Cryogenic or Cryogen-Free Cooling
Cryostats are available as pour-filled liquid cryogen dewars or cryogen-free refrigerators. In general terms, dewars are passive cooling devices that contain vacuum-insulated reservoirs of LN2, LHe, or LN2 plus LHe that provide all cooling power needed in these open cycle systems. Refrigerators use mechanically refrigerated cold heads embedded in a vacuum case in a closed cycle system. Both dewar and refrigerator systems are readily adapted to many different applications.
