These advantages are made possible by using the refrigerator to cool a column of helium exchange gas surrounding the sample. The sample is inserted, via a long rod, into a nearly isothermal region of the gas column for cooling. Sample exchange simply consists of removing the sample rod, switching samples on the rod, and reinserting the rod into the cryostat. The entire sequence takes only a matter of minutes and is performed while the refrigerator is operating. Thus the time to cool successive samples is greatly reduced over cold finger cryostats.

Janis exchange gas refrigerators are available in two geometries: with the cooler mounted either above (CCS-950/950T) or below (CCS-550/550T) the sample chamber. The CCS-550/550T are somewhat smaller and more portable and can be easily mounted on optical tables or between the gap of some electromagnets. The CCS-950/950T permit the sample region to be inserted into the sample chamber of a spectrometer or the room temperature bore of a superconducting magnet.
