The IceCube 17M is equipped with the CRYOSUPERIOR Technology and a large freezing chamber.  Using parallel flow technology the air/gas exchange is carried out in a large scale circulating motion and the return takes place in the isolated outer  area of the cooling chamber  

As a member of the large-scale series, the IceCube 17M achieves parallel and cross sectional replacement of gas volume across the whole chamber to give a uniform temperature profile.  The gas flow in the instrument has been engineered to ensure a homogeneous temperature distribution throughout the chamber.   

Tightly controlled injectors meter the liquid nitrogen addition according to the temperature difference between the set-point and the actual reading.
