7 Handling the Sample Holder and Sample
Two different types of sample holder flanges are
available for the HTK 1200N: the
stationary sam-
ple holder
(Fig. 19) and the
sample spinner
(Fig. 20).
The pedestal and the cup of the sample holder are
made of alumina providing high corrosion resis-
tance.

7.1 Mounting/Demounting the Sample
Holder Flange
The HTK 1200N is delivered with the sample holder
mounted.
The procedure of mounting the sample holder is the
same for both sample holder flanges.
To replace the sample holder, proceed as follows:
1. Disconnect the cable from the sample holder at
the bottom of the sample holder flange.
Prepare the supplied stand for the sample
holder flange.
2. Hold the sample holder flange with one hand
and unscrew the four fixing screws with the
other hand. Remove the sample holder flange
carefully from the chamber and put it on the
stand.
CAUTION
Hot surface
Make sure that the heater is off and the sample
holder is at room temperature before touching it.
We recommend using a suitable meter for
checking the temperature of the sample holder
surface.
