We have conducted precise magnetization measurements down to 500 mK using a commercial magnetometer. The gas handling system contains two sorption pumps filled with granular charcoals. He gas is pressurized up to ambient pressure for liquification at 3 K and the vapor is pumped for cooling. We demonstrate the performance of the system by observing the Meissner effect of aluminum below the superconducting transition temperature.
