General Information
The Newport Vibration Control System provides an ideal working platform for
vibration sensitive devices such as interferometers, microscopes, and balances.
The table surface is isolated from floor motion using the Stabilizer™ pneumatic
suspension system. The versatile Newport Vibration Control System is available
in a variety of sizes, working surfaces, and options.
These systems integrate Newport’s rigid, laminated honeycomb panel technol-
ogy and pneumatic isolation systems to provide a mounting platform which is
rigid, yet thin and light weight.
It is possible to tailor the system to a wide variety of applications using the
entire range of sizes and working surfaces. A typical Newport Vibration
Control System is shown in Figure 1.1
The Stabilizer™ isolation system is capable of supporting 2000 pounds
per isolator. Caution must be observed to ensure that heavy payloads are
not located off center on the table surface. This could cause overloading
of one isolator even though the average load per isolator is below the
2000 pound limit.
Heavy payloads with very high centers of gravity (C-G) may cause the
isolation system to oscillate. Please consult Section 3.2 of this manual or
Newport Applications Engineering for high C-G applications.
Please read this instruction manual thoroughly before assembling the table
system. The individual components have been assembled at the factory
and require only final system assembly and performance adjustment.
The components of your Newport Vibration Control System are packed in
individual, labeled boxes. Be sure the number of boxes you received is
equal to the total number listed on the label (for example, if a box is labeled
1 of 4, there should be 4 boxes).
Use the photographs in Figure 1.1 to locate and identify each component as
you remove it from the box. Carefully inspect all components for shipping
damage. Report any shipping damage immediately to Newport and the
shipping company.
The following terms are used in this manual that relate to your safety.
Warning is used to indicate dangers that could result in personal injury.
Caution is used to indicate situations that may result in damage to compo-
