Inficon Easy Rate Single Sensor

Overview

Easy Rate Single Sensors are designed and manufactured to provide a cost effective solution to high-accuracy thickness monitoring for short optical and batch coating processes.

This sensor minimizes production cost with the lowest initial investment and total cost of ownership. It is also designed to maximize availability through a long-lasting sensor that has less maintenance.

Easy Rate Single Sensors are available in standard and right angle orientations, and they can be configured to include a feedthrough with or without bored-through tube fittings.

Note: Easy Rate Single sensors use 4.8 mm (3/16 in.) outer diameter (OD) water cooling tubes. They are not compatible with Ultra-Torr equipped Front Load Sensor feedthroughs and require a tubing adapter in order to be welded to a standard feedthrough with 4.8 mm (3/16 in.) OD water cooling tubes.

Features & Benefits

Minimum investment with lowest upfront cost
Lowest total cost of ownership from extended sensor life
Maximum throughput with less maintenance
Easy installation
Available in standard and right angle configurations
Optional shutter available
Sensor / Feedthrough combinations available with or without bored-through tube fittings
