Request InfoTurbo VacuumTurbo Vacuum’s vCube multipurpose vacuum cube is a rugged, oil-free compact system designed for ease of operation and long-term use. It is available with rough (3 mbar) or high (10–6 mbar) vacuum capability. The 8 × 8-in. unit is mountable in various configurations and movable while in operation. Although the system uses a turbo pump to achieve ultimate pressure, it does not employ some of the standard operating procedures of a turbo pump. The device includes a quick-connect inlet flange of NW 25. The pumping speed is 11 l/s for nitrogen, 6 l/s for helium and 4 l/s for hydrogen.See full productRelated content from Photonics MediaARTICLESPhotonics Spectra April 2023 IssueHamamatsu Edges Closer to Compact Laser Fusion SourceBuilding on an existing multiyear R&D pursuit to establish technology that produces laser pulses at 250 J with a repetition rate of 10 Hz, Hamamatsu Photonics has developed a laser system that...Photonics.com 5/12/2022X-Ray Laser Achieves Its Final, Colder-Than-Space TemperatureThe superconducting particle accelerator, an upgrade to the Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) x-ray free-electron laser at the U.S. Department of Energy’s SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory,...WEBINARSPhotonics.com 4/17/2018Fundamentals of Helium Leak DetectionFrom LEDs to medical devices to microelectronics to fiber optics — everything leaks!
