Gasonics AWO-1-4 Optical Viewport Assembly
Introduction:
The Gasonics AWO-1-4 is a compact optical viewport assembly. It is designed to fit into space-constrained environments while providing essential optical access for monitoring and diagnostics. The “1-4” typically denotes a smaller aperture size compared to other AWO models.
Technical Specifications:
- Window Material: Quartz or Tempered Glass
- Aperture Size: Small form factor (e.g., 1.4 inches or 35mm)
Detailed content
- Vacuum Rating: UHV compatible
- Mounting: Threaded or Flanged (ISO-K mini)
- Pressure Rating: 14.7 psi differential
- Temperature: Up to 180°C
Functional Features:
- Compact Design: Ideal for small chambers or port-dense configurations.
- Sealed Optics: Prevents process gases from condensing on the optical surfaces.
- Anti-Fog Coating: Optional coating to prevent condensation during venting cycles.
- Particle Containment: If the window breaks, the design prevents particles from entering the chamber.
Application Scenarios:
- Mini-Chambers: Used in small R&D or specialized process modules.
- Sensor Ports: Dedicated ports for specific optical sensors (e.g., fiber optic feedthroughs).
- Alignment Lasers: Small ports for low-power alignment beams.
- Pilot Light Housings: Housing for status indicators visible from outside the chamber.
