[Triumf-seminars] TRIUMF Technical Seminar today at 15:00

[TRIUMF Seminars]

Date/Time: Mon 2016-10-17 at 15:00

Location:  MOB boardroom       

Speaker:   Phil Acomb, senior Application Engineer at MKS Ins (MKS Instruments)

Title:     demo of ion trap based RGA (MKS VQA)

Abstract: 835 VQM (Auto Resonant Ion Trap Mass Spectrometer) for rest gas analysis- NEW Technology Presentation and Product Demonstration

This presentation will cover the basics of the physics behind this new technology, as well as the benefits and limitations of this technology. We will have an operating system with us so that we can demonstrate the product performance and operation.
Benefits of the technology that will be discussed:

 Speed – 20x (or more) Faster Than a Quadrupole
 1-145 AMU in 85 msec
 Analyze fast pressure transients
 Capture complete trend data for ALL species ALL of the time (do not have to preselect what to trend)

 Exceptional UHV Performance
 Minimized outgassing from small surface area
 Low CO, CO2 and O2 from filament
 Same responsiveness and dynamic range at UHV pressures

 No Zero Blast
 No overrepresentation of the low mass gasses due to the mass filter technology

 Small Size
 Can be installed with minimal impact to tool access for chamber maintenance

 Remote Electronics
 1, 3, 20, or 50 Meter cables available with remote electronics
 Accelerator customers can remote the electronics from the beam line

 Sensor and Electronics Are Not a Matched Set
 ANY Sensor With ANY Electronics
 Put sensors on any chamber, connect electronics when you want mass spectrum.
 Economical and efficient way to get mass spectrometers on all chambers

 Simple Single Gas Calibration

 Easy Field Replacement of Electron Multiplier and Filament

 Low Power - Purely Electrostatic Device

 Stays Cleaner

 High resolution
