Particle monitor for throttled pumping systems

A method for accomplishing particle monitoring above the throttle valve of a turbo pump provides a particle sensor which is built into the throttle valve in such a way that it is insensitive to local plasma glows. Furthermore, the particle sensor is placed such that a particle monitoring laser beam...

Zusammenfassung:A method for accomplishing particle monitoring above the throttle valve of a turbo pump provides a particle sensor which is built into the throttle valve in such a way that it is insensitive to local plasma glows. Furthermore, the particle sensor is placed such that a particle monitoring laser beam of the particle sensor is offset from the centerline of the pipe, so as to maximize exposure to process gas flow which is diverted to the periphery of the pipe by the position of a butterfly valve plate.
