VACT 2290 High Vacuum Equipment

This course introduces the equipment necessary to operate in the high vacuum regime (approximately 10-3-10-6 Torr), such as specialized pumps and vacuum hardware components.  System conductance and pump-down performance are affected by the selection of the specific components and the underlying material properties. 

Cannot earn credit if student successfully completed VACT 2293.  If repeating VACT 2293 for a higher grade, the calculation will occur upon completion of VACT 2290, VACT 2291, and VACT 2292.
