IntegraTorr
)
IntegraTorr represents a revolutionary way to integrate non-evaporable getter pumping into a particle accelerator vacuum chamber. It is achieved by depositing a Sputtered Non-Evaporable Getter (SNEG) coating onto the surface of the vacuum chamber. The result is that the surface of the vacuum chamber, normally an outgassing source, becomes a vacuum pump. IntegraTorr finds its applications in:
- Particles accelerators.
- Heavy ion rings.
- Synchrotron radiation facilities.
- Insertion devices and Beam lines.
Related technology
This application is based on the Non-evaporable Getter Thin Film Coatings (NEG) technology developed at CERN.
Added Value
- This technology nicely complements the more traditional SAES Getters NEG pumps product line, thus allowing SAES Getters to offer a complete portfolio of getter solutions for particle accelerators and high-energy applications.
- Besides providing a true, fully distributed pumping system, the IntegraTorr coating film also reduces the degassing induced by ion, electron and photon bombardment.
Application available from:
Several NEG coated chambers have so far been delivered by the company and installed in a variety of machines in Europe, the US and Asia.
