friction less than 0.04 mN in all directions. |
| Balancing: |
Four
(4) different balancing weights. |
| Internal
wiring: |
DP-6
Ultra pure silver cores with Teflon.
UP-4 High grade copper, or silver as in the DP-6. |
| Capacitance
per channel: |
28pF
for both models. |

| Bearing
concept of model DP-6: |
One
internally damped, precision ball-bearing assembly
for the horizontal plane of motion. Two pivoted
sapphire bearings for the vertical mode of motion
which can be damped also, if desired, and then
adjusted to different levels of damping. |
| Bearing
concept of model UP-4: |
Hardened
steel pivot resting on a concave sapphire, and
damped for all motions with silicone fluid. |
