The VB Series Vacuum Bakeout packages comprise the BC-3 Bakeout Controller, the IRB-600 IR heat emitter, and cables. The VB-1 operates on 120 VAC and the VB-2 operates on 230 VAC for Europe and Asia.

Designed to control both shortwave IR heating emitters and heating tape, the BC-3 vacuum chamber controller provides precise control of heating power, temperature, and bakeout time. The thermocouple sensor that is mounted to the vacuum chamber provides temperature feedback to the controller...

Why do you need sputter rate standards anyway? Each ion source will produce a different sputter rate depending on the conditions that the ion source is operated at, as well as other factors such as the angle of the ion source to the sample. Changing the beam voltage, condenser and focus (beam size), pressure (amount of argon or other gas) and raster area all affect the sputter rate. By using a sputter rate standard you can characterize your ion source for a particular set of operating...

The AVC provides control of the pneumatic valves on the system by using 24V DC solenoids to route air to either open or close the valves as needed. The symptom for a failed solenoid valve is that the light on the AVC remote box indicates that the valve is open, but the actual valve does not open. Or, it may be that the valve will not close.

The 9103 is Now Available in Four Configurations:

- Standard: sample rate 40 reads/second - High-speed: sample rate 500 reads/second - High-voltage: sample rate 40 reads/second, floats up to 5 kV DC - High-speed / High-Voltage: sample rate 500 reads/second, floats up to 5 kV DC

The 5 kV voltage rating of the 9103 opens up new applications for a USB picoammeter including use with a Langmuir probe, plasma spray current monitoring, electron and ion beam lines, and directly measuring...

We are excited to announce that we have a new portal! You can request sales information and technical assistance from this portal. Each request creates its own ticket. Because you'll have a login for your support requests, you'll be able to review all your support tickets in the portal. And, if you create a login, you'll be able to see your requests for sales information, too.

Our plan is to create a knowledge base that will make suggestions as you create your ticket. We're not there yet...
