ARGAT®

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.
