Microvision 2 Flexible, Integration-ready Residual Gas Analyzer
Model: MICROVISION-2

Overview
Overview
Microvision 2 is the latest innovation in RGA technology from MKS, designed to meet all of the traditional requirements for an RGA sensor but with data collection at speeds unachievable with previous generation technologies. In addition, the Microvision 2 is designed to collect data at millisecond speeds per data point even when measuring data over the full dynamic range of the RGA. This capability has been achieved without sacrificing any of the necessary robustness, reliability and support which have made MKS the world leader in RGA products over the widest range of applications from semiconductor tools or particle accelerators to general industrial applications. Microvision 2 is useful in a wide range of situations where knowing the contents of your chamber is critical to the success of your process.
