(Left-hand side) Mjölnir in position and set up for operation on the rotary table on beamline 2-BM of the Advanced Photon Source. (Right-hand side) Cartoon schematic of the layout and connection of control/power/signal (blue) and fluid (red) connections for typical operation. (a) Laptop PC with Qmix Elements software controls (b) two Cetoni neMESYS high-pressure syringe pumps which are connected via (c) fluid manifolds to the (d) hydraulic actuator and confining pressure vessel of Mjölnir. (e) Band heaters fitted to Mjölnir are controlled via (f) Watlow temperature controllers, and the sample temperature is monitored via a data-logger or temperature display connected to a thermocouple in contact with the base of the sample. |
