Highly flexible, web-enabled RGAs with improved stability, accuracy and speed

Andover, MA - MKS Instruments, Inc., a global provider of technologies that enable advanced processes and improve productivity, has introduced Microvision 2 and e-Vision 2, web-enabled residual gas analyzers (RGA) for greater stability and reliability in e-diagnostic, process monitoring and general vacuum trouble-shooting applications. The enhanced technology allows for web-based access to faster data acquisition with a wider dynamic range of measurement.

Microvision 2 and e-Vision 2 build on the strong performance and reputation of the Microvision Plus, e-Vision and Vision 1000 product lines. The enhanced electronics platform uses robust proprietary technology for data acquisition, and has industry standard technology for communication and control, providing for increased flexibility in process applications. These systems capture a greater number of process excursions due to improved I/O capacities, higher data quality and enhanced speed and accuracy. This in turn enables more accurate alarm decisions with fewer false positives. Ethernet connectivity enables users to access the data from anywhere on the TCP-IP network, providing a more cost-effective, flexible and functional solution to wide-scale multi-RGA installations.

Microvision 2 and e-Vision 2 are available for new or established installs alongside other instruments in the MKS range of process RGAs and gauges. The RGAs are available with a range of software control systems, from the built-in web application, through the flexible, recipe driven Process Eye Professional, to the process tool compatible, fully integrated TOOLweb RGA — all backed by reliable MKS service and application support.
