Vacuum Storage of Chemicals that interact with Stainless Steel

There are countless chemicals and metals that interact with Steel or Stainless Steel. According to our investigation, Gallium, Cadmium, Beryllium, and Zinc are some examples of materials which will interact with Steel or Stainless Steel during vacuum Storage.

A leading manufacturer or X-Ray components contacted us because another happy client connected us. Their requirements were simple, they wanted to vacuum store some of their X-Ray assembly components inside vacuum chamber. Metallic Vacuum Chambers were out of question because there was a damaging chemical interaction between the X-Ray Components and the metallic walls of the vacuum chamber. At first, we had to investigate to confirm that acrylic was a good candidate.

What you are looking at is a small Acrylic Vacuum Chamber, with shelve holders that will allow our client to place their X-Ray components onto shelves and store them in a vacuum environment. Additionally, they requested an NW40 Vacuum valve since their current vacuum connection was a NW40 vacuum hose that they could easily hook up.

If you are working on developing cutting edge X-Ray equipment and are in need of a vacuum chamber system, Contact Us to find out why so many clients are happy with our products.

Vacuum Bubble Emission ASTM 3078 Leak Testing Systems
Bubble Emission (ASTM 3078) Leak Testing Systems are instruments that are used during the Quality Control process discover and locate leaks or seal integrity failures. Leaks are detected by submerging the specimen into a tank of water, applying a vacuum, and inspecting the submersed specimen for bubble emission. Our Bubble Leak Testing Systems are designed and built to conform to the ASTM D3078 protocol standard.
Piston Vacuum Pumps
Piston Vacuum Pumps are devices that generate a vacuum through the workings of an internal piston. Several advantages of a piston pump include, low maintenance, no oil mist emission since it’s an oil free vacuum pump – the shortcoming are not as high of vacuum levels and volumetric flow.
