The ISO-Cryostat, it's Current Status and Early Test Results

The ISO-satellite consists of a Service and a Payload Module, the latter being essentially made up of the Cryostat. The present paper describes the current status of this cryostat. The general structural and thermal layout, the He-flow schematic and safety system and the general cover layout are described together with an overview on the existing hardware. Some first test results are as well reported.
