XLDsl System
Dilution Refrigerator Measurement System
The XLDsl Dilution Refrigerator Measurement System is designed for demanding experiments that require large experimental space, extensive wiring, and superior performance.
The XLDsl accommodates up to 1008 factory-installed semi-rigid 18 GHz coaxial lines in a configuration with two pulse tubes. Its side-loading feature allows experimental wiring to be prepared away from the cryostat while the system is running.
Even with its extensive capabilities and superior performance, a fully automated cool-down sequence from room to base temperature can still be carried out at the push of a single button.

Figure above shows the cooldown curves for a configuration of an XLD1000sl System with dual PT420-RM pulse tubes, 625 mm sample space height, without Mixing Chamber Shield, 168 High-Density Wiring, and 25 coax lines to 4K Flange.

Pulse Pre-Cooling sequence is one of the key points in reducing the cooldown time (see spots 2 and 3). Because we do not use exchange gas some parts of the dilution refrigerator unit stay ‘hot’ on cooldown, which prevents condensation of the mixture. To cool down these hot spots effectively, the mixture is repeatedly admitted from the tanks to the Still side of the dilution refrigerator to operate as an exchange gas and then pumped out again.
Above are cooldown curves for two different configurations of XLD450sl systems measured with calibrated resistance thermometers.
- System 1: basic XLD450sl with 75 coaxial lines and 144 DC lines.
- System 2: XLD450sl with extra space, Mixing Chamber Shield, and additional sample mounting plate.
