This ground-breaking fill-gas analyser is ideal for a multitude of applications, including:
- Fill gas analysis: The HPR-90 excels in sealed package analysis, making it perfect for the food packaging industry, where accurate measurement of fill gases is essential.
- Quality control studies: The HPR-90 aids in identifying defects, such as bubbles in glass, allowing manufacturers to maintain the highest quality standards in their products.
- Sealed volumes analysis: The analyser is also ideal for electronic device analysis, ensuring optimal performance and longevity of critical components in sealed environments.
The HPR-90 features custom-designed vacuum chamber and sample piercing and cracking mechanisms that optimize gas detection for specified vessel types, with minimized volume and surface area. Gases are efficiently transferred to the directly-coupled analysis chamber, which houses an integrated high-performance mass spectrometer for high precision analysis.
Boasting fully automated vacuum operation, measurement sequencing, and sample analysis, the HPR-90 also includes an automated gas calibration manifold with capacitance manometer for precise validation of the mass spectrometer's performance against specified calibration gas mixtures.
