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 Decay Leak Testing Systems
Vacuum Decay Leak Testing Systems are Instruments that detect and quantify a leak by measuring the drop in vacuum (pressure) inside the specimen. During a vacuum decay leak test, the specimen is placed into a vacuum chamber, the vacuum is pulled to a specified setpoint, and the drop in vacuum is monitored and recorded over time. If a leak in the specimen exists, the air will travel from a higher pressure (inside the specimen) to a lower pressure (vacuum chamber). As a results of the additional air, the vacuum levels will drop whereas a leak can be detected and quantified.
Vacuum Controller Instruments
Vacuum Controller Instruments are devices that measure and control for vacuum inside a vacuum chamber. A vacuum controller consists of a vacuum gauge, control system, and an Human Machine Interface; options include vacuum pump relays and Vacuum valves. A vacuum Controller will enable you to store products at a specified vacuum level or run a vacuum vs. time profile.
Our Work: Bubble Leak Testing System with a Dry off Sink used for Leak Testing Large Bags
How do you leak test Large Food Bags? This is the same question a Large Food and Beverage Processor had asked themselves because they had need for a bubble leak testing system which could be used to detect presence of leaks in their large bags. Their requirements were to test several sized bags with the largest bag being 24 inches Wide by 12 inch Deep by 9 inches High. In addition to the bubble leak testing system, they also needed a way to dry the bags after the test.
