Connections and Tightness

All vacuum systems require connections with either pumping systems or different peripheral accessories such as vacuum gauges, valves, etc... While these connections have to preserve vacuum integrity, they also have to be modular to allow flexibility and required maintenance. All vacuum applications involve flanges and fittings with stringent requirements regarding materials, dimensions, tightness, conductance, etc...
