Residual Gas Analysis

Analysis of gas and vapour species in vacuum chambers and processes

Systems for the examination of components present in a vessel or evolved from a process

Measures the concentration of gases and vapours in real time

All Hiden residual gas analysers are application tested and calibrated to provide the highest quality performance, and they are backed by a 3 year warranty and lifetime service support.

A range of electron impact ion sources that can be supplied with any of our residual gas analysers

Configures residual gas analysers for specific applications, molecular beam analysis for example

Hiden Analytical produces a wide variety of ion source types which can be fitted to our full range of RGAs. Ion source types are crucial to the performance of a RGA and having the ability to specify which source you require ensures our RGAs are custom configured for specific applications.

A dual mode RGA system for vacuum diagnostics and process monitoring without differential pumping

Measures the residual gases, process contaminates and provides for leak detection

The Hiden HMT quadrupole mass spectrometer is a unique dual mode RGA system capable of operating at pressures up to 4 x 10-3 mbar without the need for differential pumping. Operation at this pressure is achieved using a specially designed ion source/quadrupole filter combination and software which corrects for abundance non-linearity. The unique high pressure specification makes the HMT ideal for process monitoring applications.

A system for tokamak/torus fusion research

The DLS-1 (quadrupole residual gas analyser) is designed for analysis of fusion system fuel delivery, and operates in TIMS mode. TIMS mode provides for control of the energy of the electrons emitted within the ionisation source, resulting in each species, D2 and 4He for example having a unique fingerprint that can be determined by DLS-1. This mode of operation is known as Threshold Ionisation Mass Spectrometry (TIMS).
