Room Temperature /RT
/RT positioners are manufactured for use at ambient conditions
(room temperature and pressure, dry atmosphere. If not stated other-
wise specifications listed are measured under ambient conditions.
All attocube positioners are tested at room temperature before
delivery. Depending on the ordered version additional tests at 4K or
inside our vacuum chamber will be performed prior to shipment.
High Vacuum /HV
At attocube the high vacuum range is specified down to 1E-8 mBar.
The materials used are stainless steel in case of the Industrial Line
positioners. /HV positioners will be tested at pressures <1E-6 mBar
to provide reliable motion in high vacuum.
Ultra High Vacuum /UHV
/UHV means that the materials used are compatible with UHV speci-
fications. These positioners can be baked out at temperatures up to
150 °C. A test in a baked UHV environment is performed to guarantee
full functionality down to 5E-11 mBar.
