Crystal Test Display: 0 to +5 +/- .25 V full scale, Corresponding to last 2 or 3 digits of selected display

Output Control: Rate or Thickness select Decade select for conversion of last 2 or 3 digits of display. Fill scale and zero scale output useful in calibrating recording equipment

Vacuum Fittings/ Components

Slide6.jpeg

The International Standards Organization has defined the interface dimensions of ISO-KF vacuum flanges allowing the interchanging of components that conform to the ISO-KF standard. Since component dimensions are standardized, elbows, tees, crosses or valves for a given flange size can be interchanged. 

 

ISO-KF vacuum clamps provide the sealing force to fully compress the O-ring for a vacuum seal, and mechanical force to hold the two flange faces together. 

 

  • The KF Clamps are available in standard KF 10/16/25/40 and KF 50 size.

  • The clamp is Aluminium die cast with stainless steel centering ring and Oring. Stainless steel clamps can also be made as per customer’s request.

  • The material used is SS grade-304 for all flanges, weld stub, blanks, elbow/Tee and cross and reducers etc.

  • Stainless steel flexible Bellows can be made as per customer’s requirement with specific flange end-connections and length.

  • ConFlat (CF) fittings or flanges using metal seals and copper gasket (OFHC) and Needle valves and bigger length weld stubs are available as per custom requirements.
