Product Description
Newport Stabilizer I-2000 High Performance Laminar Flow Isolator – 28″ Height, Square Cross-Section
(
This used Newport I-2000 Stabilizer is a high-performance pneumatic vibration isolator featuring an industry-standard 28-inch height and a 10-inch square cross-section . It is designed for demanding OEM and research applications requiring superior vibration damping, including semiconductor test and inspection, interferometry, patch/clamp electrophysiology, ultrafast laser research, and high-resolution microscopy .
The I-2000 utilizes Newport’s exclusive laminar flow damping technology, which employs thousands of tiny orifices to deliver greater damping efficiency and superior isolation bandwidth compared to single-orifice designs . A trifilar pendulum provides horizontal isolation down to very low frequencies, while the hybrid chamber design minimizes air volume between the piston and damper for enhanced stability .
