Ardara Technologies offers a variety of custom flange solutions including:

  • Detector Mounting Flanges
    • Available as 6-inch and 8-inch ConFlat flanges with convient support handles
    • Electron multiplier is mounted with in stainless-steel housing (custom length housings are available).
    • Detector Flanges come with 5 standard build-in MHV connections for powering electron multiplier, with a mini-ConFlat flange at the center of the flange, suitable for mounting a sight glass or additional high voltage feedthrough.
    • Our 8-inch Conflat Detector Flange offers 8 additional Mini-Conflat connections, which can support:
      • High voltage coaxial connectors (MHV, SHV, BNC)
      • 10-pin connectors for Ion Optics
      • Gas Inlet Ports
    • The flange shown to the right is equipped with a ten-pin feedthrough, and two SHV RF feedthrough's, along with a multiplier housing and electron multiplier detector.

 

  • Radial FlangeRadial Flange
    • 8 inch double-sided ConFlat flange configured with radial feed-through's.
    • Allows for in-situ suspension of a quadrupole or other ion optics within an optics train, with conductance limiting mounting plate.
    • Standard configuration includes eight SHV-5 high voltage electrical connections and two 4-VCR gas ports, with 1/8 inch tubing inside.
    • Also useful in mounting optics in situ in front of a gate valve. 
    • Shown to the right is a radial flange with a 9 mm quadrupole and entrance optics, mounted ounto a conductance-limiting top hat with a quadrupole centering fixture.
    • Also available with ten SHV-5 high voltage electrical connections.
    • Can be configured with an in situ electron mulitpler with einzel lens for detection and diagnostics of an ion beam line. 
      • When the high voltages are enabled, the electron multiplier serves as a detector. 
      • When the detector voltages are connected to a lens supply, the optics serve as an einzel lens.
