Stainless Steel Vacuum Chamber

Stainless Steel Vacuum Chamber
Stainless Steel Vacuum Chamber
Our experience and capabilities range from clear acrylic, to aluminum, to stainless steel vacuum chambers in cube, square, cylindrical, and weird shapes. Over the years, we have had the privilege to work with all branches of the US Government, most of the Russell 2000 companies, and most of the companies listed in the S&P500. When it comes to vacuum systems, we have seen it all.

There are several reasons to choose a stainless-steel vacuum chamber. The main reason is that stainless steel will allow for a much greater vacuum performance over acrylic. In fact, all high vacuum systems use stainless steel vacuum chambers. Another reason to go with a stainless-steel vacuum chamber is that stainless steel is capable of higher operational temperatures. The maximum temperature of a stainless-steel vacuum chamber is in the order of about 350 degrees Celsius. Stainless steel is also used because it is resistant to alcohols, thinners, and solvents and unlike acrylic, it will not craze or blemish during exposure to the aforementioned chemicals.

You are looking at a 12 inch Wide, 12 inch Deep, and 12-inch-High Stainless Steel Vacuum Chamber with a clear acrylic front door. The chamber door has two toggle lid clamps, one lid handle, and two door hinges. The door will fully open beyond 90 degrees enabling fully loading operation. The chamber has QTY: 4 x mounting feet with 0.5-inch Holes at the bottom. On the top wall, you will see a QTY: 3 x NW25/QF25 Quick Flange 25 ports. Two of these ports are populated with a stainless steel 0.5-inch NPTF valve. The middle port is connected to an Instrutech stinger CVM Vacuum Gauge. This vacuum gauge is capable of measuring and displaying absolute pressure in Torr and millitorr in three significant figures and the range is from ambient to 0.001 Torr or one millitorr.

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.
BNC Vacuum Feedthroughs
Coaxial Vacuum Feedthroughs are vacuum rated BNC connectors that enable you to run BNC from outside of vacuum chamber towards inside of the vacuum chamber without disturbing the vacuum. Triaxial Vacuum Feedthroughs, just like coax vacuum feedthroughs, will enable you to run Triax Connections from outside towards the inside of the vacuum chamber without disturbing the vacuum levels inside the vacuum chamber.
Our Work: Research, Development, and Testing of Weather Balloons inside a Clear Vacuum Chamber
A wonderful company (more like one of the best companies in the world) which is currently involved with the research, development, and testing of high-altitude weather balloons, had a need for a vacuum chamber capable of achieving about 100 micro Torr (Micron) of ultimate Pressure for their testing environment. Fortunately, acrylic vacuum chambers are the perfect choice when it comes to Low, Rough, and Medium Vacuum.
Related Articles: Force Decay Leak Testing
Force Decay Leak Testing is a very popular quantitative leak testing method used to quality test package and product integrity due to its ability to detect small leaks which cannot be seen through visual inspection. In this method, the test specimen is internally inflated by either internal pressurization or vacuum force. The inflated test specimen will, in turn, apply a force on a pressure transducer. Finally, the change in force applied by the inflated specimen over a specified time is observed.
