Non-Magnetic UHV & XHV Conflat Titanium Flanges
Atlas Titanium ConFlat Flanges feature the reliability of the industry-standard CF knife edge. Weld the titanium flange to a titanium vacuum chamber, and it becomes a completely non-magnetic system. Titanium vacuum chambers with titanium flanges ensure no environmental magnetic interaction and deliver extraordinary vacuum performance.
Applications:
- UHV synchrotron
- Particle physics
- Industrial applications
- XHV quantum physics
- Beam tubes
- Wigglers and undulators
- Free electron lasers (FEL)
- Drift tubes
- Spectrometers
Light/Low Weight Atlas Flanges:
- Ideal for weight sensitive applications such as aerospace or portable systems
- Weight-to-volume ratios are 1/3 that of stainless steel flanges
- Significantly reduces overall weight of vacuum chambers
