Must design and build other mass flow standard in UME. System can be used for • Gas Flow Measurement [Q=C×∆P] (Double Chamber System) • TMP Evaluation (High Vacuum Pumps) • Scroll Pump Evaluation (Low Vacuum Pump) • Mass Flow Rate Measurement [dP/dt] at Constant Volume Chamber • System can be improved to continuous expansion system • QMS Evaluation Long Term Stability Results of Leak Valve Long term stability of leak valve (MDC/ULV-150) 8.192E-06 4.096E-06 2.048E-06 1.024E-06 5.12E-07 2.56E-07 1.28E-07 6.4E-08 3.2E-08 1.6E-08 8E-09 4E-09 2E-09 1E-09 Base Pressure Pressure (mbar) 5.00E-09 1.00E-08 1.00E-07 1.00E-06 1.00E-05 0 300 600 Time (s) 900 Pressure (mbar) Base Pr. 5,00E-09 1,00E-08 1,00E-07 1,00E-06 1,00E-05 St.Dev. 1,2E-11 8,8E-11 1,0E-10 1,1E-09 8,2E-09 3,2E-08 Long Term Stability Results of Leak Valve 1.2E-06 1.1E-08 1.00E-08 1E-08 Pressure (mbar) Pressure (mbar) 1.2E-08 1.00E-06 1E-06 9E-07 9E-09 0 300 Time (s) 600 0 900 300 600 900 Time (s) 1.2E-07 1.2E-05 1.1E-07 1.00E-07 1E-07 Pressure (mbar) Pressure (mbar) 1.1E-06 0.000011 1.00E-5 0.00001 9E-06 9E-08 0 300 600 Time (s) 900 0 300 600 Time (s) 900
