AVS Standard 2.1
Leak indicator
50-segment bar graph. Four decades of sensitivity each selected by the
RANGE SELECT switch.
External inputs and
outputs
See Table 1-5 on page 1-9 for Inputs/Outputs
Spectrometer tube
Preamplifier is a temperature-compensated, solid-state device, located in the
vacuum enclosure. The entire tube can be quickly removed for maintenance.
Dual-filament, disposable, all-welded ion source.
High Vacuum
(Optional turbo or
macroTorr turbo
pump)
Operating position: any
Noise level: < 45 dB at 1 meter
Operating ambient temperature: 41 °F to 122 °F (+5 °C to +50 °C )
(depending on foreline pressure)
Maximum recommended operating temperature:
130 °F (55 °C) with cooling fan; 123 °F (50.6 °C) without cooling fan
Note
The sensitivity of the 990 CLD leak detector
is influenced
by the selection of the high-vacuum pump and by the
pumping speed of the mechanical pump. These
specifications are obtained with a Vacuum Technologies
SD-90, 3.2 cfm pump. A minimum detectable signal is
registered as a one-segment change when tuned for direct
readout on the most sensitive leak rate range.
