Maintenance Training

MS117 - 21 hours

COURSE OBJECTIVES

To understand outgassing, to become familiar with mass spectroscopy, and especially with a residual gas analyser (RGA).
To acquire the knowledge of the limits of how to use a RGA
To learn how to analyse spectra in mass spectroscopy.

AUDIENCE

Technicians and engineers who use a residual gas analyser and who want to acquire an understanding of the phenomenon under vacuum, depending on time and/or temperature, the limits of the use of a RGA and spectrum analysis.
