A single stage Adiabatic Demagnetization Refrigerator (ADR), has been
set-up at the X-ray Astronomy Calibration and Testing (XACT) facility
of INAF - Osservatorio Astronomico di Palermo G.S. Vaiana, for the
development and testing of cryogenic X-ray detectors for laboratory and astrophysical applications. The ADR allows to cool detectors at
temperatures below 40 mK and to maintain them at constant operating
temperature for many hours. We describe the design and construction of
the ADR and present test results and performances.
