1.5 General Description
The MS-40 is a fully automatic, dual mode, turbo-molecular pumped
portable leak detector. Each of its two modes (Reverse Flow or Direct
Flow) is automatically selected by the leak detector based on the currently
selected leak rate range.
Reverse Flow Mode permits rapid testing for leaks in test objects that are
characterized by a high degree of out-gassing. Testing can start at test port
pressures of Atm for leaks from 10 to 1 x 10
-3
std cc/sec (Gross Mode
testing) when using the optional external pump or pressures of 7.5 Torr
for leaks between 10 x 10
-4
and 6 x 10
-10
std cc/sec (Intermediate Mode
testing) for units not equipped with an external pump.
Direct Flow Mode is most useful for testing objects that demand clean
testing and higher sensitivity. In this mode, the leak detector measures
leaks from 10 x 10
-9
to 6 x 10
-11
std cc/sec, at a test port pressure of 100
millitorr or less. However, this mode is also capable of determining
larger leaks. Once the unit is in this mode and a larger leak has been
detected, the unit will range back to the appropriate decade.
The MS-40 uses two types of automatic testing: an automatic test mode
with automatic ranging and an automatic test mode with manual ranging.
In automatic ranging mode, the leak detector automatically ranges
downward (to more sensitive leak rate ranges) until a leak is found. When
using manual ranging, the operator of the leak detector controls the range
in which a particular test object is tested.
In the Automatic Test Mode, when using Automatic Ranging, all the
functions of the leak detector, including the evacuation (pump down) of
the test object and the functions of all pumps and valves are controlled by
the MS-40 computer. Additionally, all measurements and display
information about the leak rate and system performance are under the
control of the computer.
The Automatic Test Mode, when using Manual Ranging, is identical to
the Automatic Testing/Automatic Ranging mode except that the User
pre-selects the range (e.g., 10
-5
std cc/sec) for testing. If a measured leak is
either above or below the pre-selected decade, the leak detector operator
can manually range the unit either up or down. The remainder of the
testing procedure is handled by the MS-40 computer in exactly the same
manner as with the Automatic Ranging Mode.
