CHAMBER 4-COMPS
Four sample compartments.
One controlled testing platform.
Chamber 4X combines four glass-covered compartments with custom temperature-controlled fixtures for parallel sample testing. Air or nitrogen connections and electrical interfaces bring atmosphere management, sample signals and thermal control into one compact assembly.
- Four compartments
- 15–80 °C cell temperature
- Air or nitrogen
- Custom thermal fixtures
Each compartment combines a glass cap, sealed casing and a custom temperature-controlled fixture. The four-position layout supports comparative experiments while allowing the sample holders and contacts to be configured for the devices under test.

Specifications refer to the CHAMX4 user guide, revision 2, February 2020. Fixture and connection details depend on the supplied configuration.
Gas routing and measurement connections.
Configurable gas connections
Each compartment has two 1/8 BSP threaded ports, supplied as standard with one tube fitting and one plug. The gas setup uses 6 mm tubing with external inlet and outlet valves.
Internal channels link compartments 1–2 and 3–4. These pairwise connections can be isolated using 1/8 BSP plugs as described in the user guide.
Sample and thermal interfaces
The 44-pin DUT/TEC connectors carry sample signals and temperature-control connections. Custom fixtures provide the thermal contact and electrical contact arrangement required by the device.
Glass caps locate on alignment pins and are secured with hand-tightened knobs. Clean seals, correct fixture positioning and even tightening support reliable closure.
Use in a ventilated indoor laboratory. Route nitrogen outlets to a suitable gas exhaust and follow the user guide for connection, purging and opening procedures. Avoid sudden pressure changes; glass covers can become hot during operation.
INTEGRATION EXAMPLE
Four controlled positions in one experimental platform.
This configuration shows the four-compartment chamber hardware integrated with gas and pressure lines in a real test setup. The architecture can be adapted around the required sample holders, fluidic connections and environmental-control workflow.
