Chemical Vacuum Experiments on Gasses and Liquids

Did you know that gasses and liquids and even solids behave differently at different absolute pressures? For Example, water will start to boil at a lower and lower temperature as the pressure is decreased. Water can boil at room temperature if the pressure is decreased to 20 Torr of absolute pressure. Other phenomenon which can happen is that materials can fuse together or weld in high vacuum.

Our client is in academia performing research on Gas Phase and Liquid Phase Experiments. They required a large vacuum chamber that has a spring supported lid. The also asked us to provide them with an electrical NEMA-15 outlet so that they can power up some of their electrical devices inside of the vacuum chamber without compromising the vacuum.

In addition to the above, they requested a 25 Multipin Vacuum Feedthrough. This feedthrough along with the electrical outlet are placed on the rear wall. Finally, they requested 6 x 1/2 inch NPT liquid or gas vacuum feedthroughs that are placed on the remaining 4 exposed walls of the chamber. We plugged these feedthrough ports so that our client is able to remove the plug and hook up their liquid or gas line onto the port and run it into the vacuum chamber. The port is threaded from both inside and outside.

Vacuum Oven Systems
Vacuum Ovens are vacuum chambers and ovens combined in one system. Vacuum ovens are necessary during processes which require the specimen to be subjected to a hypobaric and hyperthermal environment. Our Vacuum Oven Systems enable to you run a complete vacuum vs time and temperature vs time profile. We also carry portable vacuum oven systems and custom vacuum oven systems.
Liquid and Gas Vacuum Feedthroughs
A Liquid and Gas Vacuum Feedthroughs are tubes that will allow you to run liquid or gas into your vacuum chamber without contaminating the vacuum levels or vacuum chamber in general. Say you are looking to run a coolant into the vacuum chamber and cool a component you are testing. You can simply install a liquid and gas vacuum feedthrough are run your coolant towards your test specimen.
Our Work: Submersion Leak Testing of Explosive or Volatile Products
Ever wondered how to leak test packaged volatile products? Do you know that there are countless unstable products out there that have to be leak tested as part of quality control? By volatile we mean products which ignite, explode, shatter, melt, or are hazardous. Keep in mind that hazardous material for whatever reason has be undergo quality control as well.
