Electrical Heating Stage AEH200-Mini/AEH600S/AEH800S
Product Detail
InSitu Pro™ AEH200-Mini, AEH600S and AEH800S bring resistive heating to electrical characterization: RT to 200, 600 or 800 °C at ±0.1 °C, with Max heating 150 °C/min and a controllable cooling rate. The AEH200-Mini pairs a trough-type oil-bath stage with two high-voltage probes; the AEH600S and AEH800S run four magnetic-mount probes with gold-plated tungsten-carbide tips in an atmosphere chamber — grounded or electrically floating.
Key features
- RT to 200 / 600 / 800 °C, resistiveResistive heating at ±0.1 °C stability — Max heating 150 °C/min, with a controllable cooling rate.
- AEH200-Mini: oil-bath trough stageThe trough-type sample stage is designed for oil-bath environments and immersion oil-bath testing — an exposed, open stage with a copper φ20 × 4 mm platform and two high-voltage probes.
- AEH600S / AEH800S: chamber stagesRT to 600 °C on the silver 23 × 23 mm stage or RT to 800 °C on the stainless-steel 23 × 23 mm stage, in an atmosphere chamber, capable of stable long-term operation at high temperature.
- Probes per model, BNC outHigh-voltage probe holders ×2 with gold-plated copper probes on BNC ×2 (AEH200-Mini), or magnetic-mount holders ×4 with gold-plated tungsten-carbide probes on BNC ×4 (AEH600S / AEH800S) — connecting to compatible electrical measurement instruments.
- Reflection or transmission opticsOn the AEH600S / AEH800S: φ25 × 1 mm JGS2 top window (220–2500 nm, hand-removable), optional φ10 × 1 mm bottom window for the transmission path with the φ2 mm light hole. The AEH200-Mini runs without a window set.
- Grounded or floating stageOn all three models the sample-stage surface can be grounded or electrically floating, selectable to match the measurement configuration.

Heating in air? Plan for oxidation
When operated in air at elevated temperature, many metals and alloys may oxidize — the extent depends on material composition, surface condition, temperature, atmosphere, and exposure time. Hold a sample for an hour at a working temperature and see:
Model: parabolic oxidation x² = k·t with an Arrhenius rate constant — an approximation for diffusion-controlled oxidation, not every material or temperature; the vacuum panel suppresses the oxidant supply. The AEH600S and AEH800S heat in an atmosphere chamber, and the AEH200-Mini runs as an exposed stage — confirm the intended operating atmosphere at quotation. Curves are schematic, not performance data for a specific stage or sample.

FAQ
What is the difference between the three models?
The AEH200-Mini (RT to 200 °C) is an exposed, open stage with a trough-type copper platform for immersion oil-bath testing, two high-voltage probes and BNC ×2. The AEH600S (RT to 600 °C, silver stage) and AEH800S (RT to 800 °C, stainless-steel stage) share an atmosphere chamber with a JGS2 window set, four magnetic-mount probes and BNC ×4.
Is cooling really “natural cooling”?
The specification lists a controllable cooling rate. These models use resistive heating, and no separate active-cooling method is listed in the standard specification. For active cooling, see the LN₂-cooled AECH600S or the TEC-based AEPE120.
How is the AEH200-Mini used for oil-bath testing?
Its trough-type sample stage is designed for oil-bath environments: the exposed stage suits immersion oil-bath testing, with the two high-voltage probe holders carrying gold-plated copper probes to the sample and signals out on BNC ×2.
How do the probes connect to my instruments?
Probe signals run out on BNC connectors (×2 on the AEH200-Mini, ×4 on the AEH600S / AEH800S) to compatible electrical measurement instruments. The stage surface can be grounded or electrically floating on all three models; custom probes and probe interfaces are available as options.
How do I order, and what software support is included?
All three models are supplied by quotation: request via this page or the InSitu Pro™ Stage Selector, and our engineers confirm the configuration for your instruments and reply with pricing and lead time. The host-computer software provides temperature setting, program editing, and data acquisition; LabVIEW and C# SDKs support customized integration.
