Easy and efficient: Our systems for the determination of cleanliness and outgassing rates
Our systems define today´s standard for the detection and analysis of chemical film-type contaminants and outgassing rates on parts and assemblies. The used technology offers you the possibility to determine the exact cleanliness and outgassing characteristics of your parts.
Advantages of our products
Up to now, adequate monitoring of parts cleanliness was only possible via time-consuming, destructive and/or expensive analytical methods. This changes with our products. Cleanliness becomes available to everyone.
Our analytical devices
- detect film-type contaminants and outgassing rates of the surfaces of individual components or assemblies of any geometry.
- provide quantitative results (mass of residual dirt in g or outgassing rate in mbar*l/s each per surface in cm²) and, thus, prepare the way to determine appropriate limits for sufficient parts cleanliness.
- test non-destructively and without recontamination. Your components can be further processed immediately after testing.
- allow an easy identification of the causes of film-type contamination and enable efficient and targeted process optimisations.
- can be used close to production, i.e. practically in-line.
- are very easy to operate due to the automated measuring process and the intuitive software. After an extensive user training, the system can be operated by each employee.
Your choice
ARGAT® - Automatic Residual Gas Analysis Tool
ARGAT® is a measuring device for residual gas analysis under vacuum. It fully-automatically determines outgassing rates of individual components and complete assemblies.
As a result of the automatic spectral measurement, residual gas compositions can be determined directly and gas contributions can be clearly assigned to their sources. Furthermore, ARGAT® provides absolute and comparable measured values of the outgassing rates in mbar * l/s/cm², which enables the determination of appropriate test values.
ARGAT® devices can be configured low-particle and free of heavy metals and silicones to meet the requirements of different industrial sectors for the operation in clean rooms.

VIDAM® - Fully automatic cleanliness measuring device for film type contamination
VIDAM® is a cleanliness measuring device which determines chemical film-type contamination on the entire product surface by vacuum-induced desorption. Individual components as well as assemblies can be tested non-destructively and fully-automatically. As a result of the spectral measurement, contaminations can be clearly identified and assigned to their causes.
VIDAM®
- provides quantitative results in g/cm² using a patented process
- allows direct further processing of your components thanks to non-destructive testing
- is very easy to operate and works fully automatically
- offers the possibility to determine limit values and to use these as basis for comparison
VIDAM® devices can be configured low-particle and free of heavy metals and and silicones to meet the requirements of different industrial sectors for the operation in clean rooms.
