2.3.5 Sample Holders
There are four sample holders for the TTK 600. De-
tailed information is contained in the chapters be-
low.
2.3.5.1 Standard Sample Holder

4 Pt100 connector
The standard sample holder of TTK 600 is opti-
mized for measurements in reflection geometry.
The sample holder is made of nickel. To provide
good heat transfer from the heater to the sample
holder, a graphite foil is placed in between. The
sample holder is fixed onto the heating/cooling
block with a screw (see Fig. 8-2).
2.3.5.2 Standard Sample Holder Heating Environ-
ment
Optionally, to minimize the deviation between the
real sample surface temperature and the displayed
temperature a standard sample holder environment
can be used which inhibits the loss of heat to the
surrounding atmosphere inside the TTK 600. The
sample holder environment can be equipped with a
graphite, nickel or Kapton foil (others on request).
To mount the sample holder environment see chap-
ter 8.4.2 Mounting the Standard Sample Holder
Heating Environment.

5 Hose for convection heating of the capillary
The Capillary Sample Holder is used for transparent
samples in transmission geometry. The tempera-
ture distribution around the capillary is improved by
the use of an additional convection heater. For fur-
ther information on the Capillary Sample Holder, re-
fer to the instruction manual
