Before delving into the selection process for vacuum pumps, it's crucial to understand several fundamental concepts:Basic ConceptsVacuum Level: Represents the thinness of gas in a vacuum state, typically measured as vacuum level. The value read from a vacuum gauge is called vacuum level or gauge pressure. This indicates how much lower the system pressure is compared to atmospheric pressure (usually 101325 Pa). For instance, water ring vacuum pumps can achieve an ultimate absolute pressure of about 3300 Pa, whereas rotary vane pumps reach approximately 10 Pa.Ultimate Relative Pressure: Refers to the internal pressure difference relative to "atmospheric pressure". When using relative or gauge pressure, negative signs precede the values because the internal pressure is always lower than the external pressure.Ultimate Absolute Pressure: Compares the internal pressure with the theoretical vacuum (0 Pa). Due to technological limitations, achieving absolute vacuum is impossible; thus, the vac

In the realm of vacuum science, vacuum refers to a gas state within a given space that is below one atmospheric pressure. This rarefied gas state is commonly referred to as a vacuum condition. Compared to the atmospheric conditions essential for human survival, this specific vacuum state has several fundamental characteristics:Pressure Differential: In a vacuum state, the gas pressure is lower than one atmospheric pressure. Consequently, all vacuum containers on the Earth's surface are subjected to atmospheric pressure, with the magnitude of this force determined by the pressure difference between the interior and exterior of the container. Given that one atmospheric pressure on the Earth's surface is approximately 10135 N/m², if the internal pressure of a container is very low, it will experience an external pressure close to one atmospheric pressure. The force per unit area at different pressures is illustrated in Table 1.Gas Molecular Density: Due to the thinness of gases in a vacuu

The concept of ultimate vacuum is critical in various fields where extremely low-pressure environments are necessary. Here are several examples showcasing its practical applications:Scientific Research:Particle Physics Research: Facilities like the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) rely on ultra-high vacuum (UHV) conditions, achieving ultimate vacuums down to 10^-9 to 10^-10 Pascals. This ensures that particle beams can travel long distances with minimal collision against gas molecules.Material Science and Surface Analysis: Techniques such as Scanning Tunneling Microscopy (STM) and Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) require an exceptionally clean environment free from air-borne contaminants, necessitating high or ultra-high vacuum conditions.Semiconductor Manufacturing:In the fabrication of semiconductor chips, processes including Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD), Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD), and etching are conducted under high vacuum or UHV to minimize contamination and ensure precision.

The ultimate vacuum refers to the lowest pressure or the highest level of vacuum that a vacuum system can achieve. In other words, it is an indicator of the capability of a vacuum pump or other vacuum generation equipment, representing the best vacuum condition that the system can attain under ideal circumstances. Different vacuum pump technologies have different ranges of ultimate vacuum. For instance, the ultimate vacuum of mechanical pumps is typically between 10^-3 to 10^-4 Pascals, whereas high-performance pumps such as diffusion pumps and turbomolecular pumps can reach pressures down to 10^-7 Pascals or even lower. The ultimate vacuum is one of the critical parameters for evaluating the performance of a vacuum system, playing a significant role in both scientific research and industrial applications.
