[labnetwork] CDA pressure booster?

[Paolini, Steven]

Iulian,
  I have an IBE with the same requirements. The volume of high pressure N2 or air is small since it is used only to drive a piston for opening the chuck clamp. We simply use a regulator with a 0-400 PSI output for this purpose. The cylinder lasts for months depending on use.
  Equipment Dood.

Dear Lab Network,

The new ion mill I expect early next year requires 160 psig CDA, which is more than what my nominally 100 psig CDA system can provide.

I am writing to ask for advice on what the best approach for providing
160 psig may be. I would like to avoid installing a compressor outside of the cleanroom and having to penetrate the cleanroom envelope.

Thank you very much,

Iulian
