The Quartz Balance QO 40A1 instrument provides a real-time, progressive indication of coating thickness during deposition, allowing the production of coatings of high accuracy and reproducibility.
The thickness of both evaporated and sputter coated films can be monitored. The sensor head is a water cooled, non-magnetic housing which is permanently positioned in the vacuum system. The crystal face is parallel to the water cooling feedthrough pipes. The Quartz Balance QO 40A1 is mounted on a DN 40CF flange with two Ø6 pipes and Microdot S-50 coaxial connector. Customized insertion length 130 - 500 mm (other on request).
