An axial field rotary energy device can include a housing having an axis. A stator assembly is mounted to the housing and has stator panels that are axially-stacked and discrete panels from each other. Each stator panel includes a respective printed circuit board (PCB) having respective coils that are electrically conductive and interconnected within the respective PCB. In addition, a rotor assembly including rotors is rotatably mounted within the housing on opposite axial ends of the stator assembly. The rotors can be mechanically coupled together. Each rotor can include magnets having leading and trailing edges. The trailing edge of one magnet and the leading edge of an adjacent magnet can be parallel to each other to define a consistent circumferential spacing, relative to the axis, between adjacent ones of the magnets.

System and apparatus for axial field rotary energy device

An axial field rotary energy device can include a rotor comprising an axis of rotation and a magnet. In addition, a stator can be coaxial with the rotor. The stator can include a plurality of stator segments that are coupled together about the axis. Each stator segment can include a printed circuit board (PCB) having a PCB layer comprising a coil. Each stator segment also can include only one electrical phase. The stator itself can include one or more electrical phases.

An axial field rotary energy device can include a housing having an axis with an axial direction. A stator assembly can include stator panels that are discrete panels from each other. The stators panels can be mechanically and stationarily coupled to the housing. Each stator panel can include a printed circuit board (PCB) having coils that are electrically conductive, and each stator panel can operate with a single electrical phase. In addition, rotors can be rotatably mounted within the housing on opposite axial ends of the stator assembly. The rotors can be mechanically coupled together with a rotor spacer. Each rotor can include magnets. In addition, in one version, no rotor is disposed between axially adjacent ones of the stator panels.

A multi-positional valve is used to control the destination of gas flows from multiple gas sources. In one valve position the gases flow to an isolated vacuum system where the flow rate and mixture can be adjusted prior to introduction into a sample vacuum chamber. In another valve position the pre-mixed gases flow from the isolated vacuum chamber and through a needle into the sample vacuum chamber.
