Abstract: A sample rotor is placed in a sample chamber inside an inner container. An air bearing type rotation mechanism blows a refrigerant gas (composed of a bearing gas and a driving gas) onto the sample rotor, to rotate the sample rotor and simultaneously cool the same.

An upper airtight chamber is formed between an outer container and the inner container. A lower airtight chamber is formed below a sealing bulkhead within a bottom unit. The upper and lower airtight chambers are in vacuum states to thereby function as vacuum insulation spaces for the internal space of the inner container.

Abstract: A standardized information acquirer acquires standardized information from an electric device. A standardized telegraphic message sender sends a standardized telegraphic message including the standardized information to a communication device. An unstandardized information acquirer acquires unstandardized information from the electric device. A standardized telegraphic message receiver receives the standardized telegraphic message including the standardized information. An electric device determiner determines whether the electric device meets a specific condition based on the standardized information included in the received standardized telegraphic message. When the electric device is determined to meet the specific condition, an unstandardized telegraphic message sender sends the unstandardized telegraphic message including the unstandardized information. An unstandardized telegraphic message receiver receives the unstandardized telegraphic message including the unstandardized information.

Alternatively, pressure is reduced for each cell, the degree of vacuum in each cell is measured, and a cell having the degree of vacuum worse than (average value of all cells+A) is considered to be defective. Then, a polymer compound is poured into the defective cells of the monolithic separation membrane structure and cured so that the defective cells are sealed. Alternatively, the polymer compound formed in advance as the sealing member is inserted into the defective cells to seal the defective cells.
