Since its introduction in 1983, the Magnetic Property Measurement System (MPMS®) sample magnetometer has become the industry standard for performance and reliability. Utilizing Superconducting Quantum Interference Device (SQUID) technology, combined with patented enhancements, the MPMS-XL sample magnetometer achieves superior measurement sensitivity, dynamic range, and reproducibility otherwise unattainable.

The MPMS-XL provides solutions for a unique class of sensitive magnetic measurements in key areas such as high-temperature superconductivity, biochemistry, and magnetic recording media. Significant growth began in 1988 with the discovery of a new class of superconducting materials. While the basic application has not changed greatly, use has expanded to more than 530 installations worldwide. The MPMS product line provides the exceptional sensitivity of a SQUID-based magnetometer in a full featured, user friendly analytical instrument.

The modular MPMS design integrates a SQUID detection system, a precision temperature control unit residing in the bore of a high-field superconducting magnet, and a sophisticated computer operating system. Powerful software controls measurements, making data collection and analysis quick and easy. Easy-to-use Windows® software allows full automation of all system parameters.

Maximum Sample Size: 9 mm
