Mirage™ Air-Cooling System
The self-heating Tempe™ sensor employs a unique cooling system called the
Mirage™ Air-Cooling System that connects through the DB-9 port. The Mirage™
forces cold air through the Tempe™ crystal compartment to counterbalance heat.
How it works
In order to achieve and maintain a specic target temperature on the crystal, the
Tempe™ rst heats the crystal to the temperature set in the deposition control menu
of the Eon™ GUI. If the Tempe™ exceeds the desired temperature, the Mirage™
is triggered, blasting the crystal compartment with cold air and returning the crystal
surface to the desired temperature. This type of regulated, hot-to-cold ratio control
mechanism is capable of sustaining a tolerance of +/-1° C.
Because it is triggered by a simple relay input, the Mirage™ can be used as a
cooling device in other applications.
