Thermal Vacuum Baking (Outgassing)

Due to the ever increasing demand for low outgassing, non-contaminating materials, parts, and assemblies, CGS Technologies Inc. is proud to offer its THERMAL VACUUM SYSTEM for small or high volume jobs. Our vacuum chamber is housed in a clean work space environment in accordance with FED-STD-209. Standard features of the vacuum baking system includes:

  1. 29" diameter x 45" chamber with provisions for three shelves (17 cu. ft.)
  2. Temperatures for ambient to 4000F (2040C)
  3. Temperature control is within ±10F at 2000F and within ±20F at 4000F
  4. Pressures from ambient to 10-8 tor (equivalent to 2000 miles altitude)
  5. Standard constant temperature soak
  6. Computer monitoring and recording of time, temperature, and pressure
  7. Nitrogen purge prior to and upon completion of bake
  8. All controllers are calibrated and traceable to NIST standards
