6.0 OPERATION
6.1 Adding Liquid Nitrogen Coolant
Liquid nitrogen is added to the 6875 Freezer/Mill with the lid open. The 6875 should be filled
until the LN level reaches approximately 2 inches (5.1 cm) below the lip of the tub. If the liquid
nitrogen is above this level when the lid is closed, LN can splash outside the tub.
Always close the
lid slowly to avoid splashing
.
Liquid nitrogen will most likely be available either in a large tank with a flexible steel hose, or in
smaller Dewar flasks. The 6875 Freezer/Mill typically consumes 10 to 15 liters of LN during initial
cool-down, and another 4 to 6 liters per hour, depending on use.
