Technology of fabrication of vacuum equipment
Abstract
Fabrication and sealing materials most commonly used in vacuum technology are described and information on their gas permeability and gas evolution in a vacuum is given. The conditions for obtaining weld and solder joints for high and ultrahigh vacuum are indicated. The formulas of certain fluxes are given. Various types of vacuum seals are analyzed, and some reference data on them are presented. The principal methods of testing for vacuum tightness are briefly described. The information is addressed to qualified workers, skilled workmen, and production engineers working in various industrial sectors and dealing with the manufacture and operation of high vacuum installations.
