Kimball Physics UHV (Ultra-High Vacuum) Vacuum Chambers are precise, modular, multiport fittings and housings that utilize integrated ConFlatTM (CF) sealing surfaces at each port.
Kimball Physics’ Multi-CFTM UHV fittings are designed as both instrument housings and as vacuum chambers. The chambers are CNC fabricated for high precision and accuracy from a monolith of 316L Stainless Steel. Fabrication from Titanium Alloys and metric threads are also available as options.
The Spherical Cube design is initially based on a hollow sphere with convex external and concave internal surfaces. The CF ports are primarily arranged in a six-sided cubic geometry. In the Expanded Spherical Cube design, the structure is enlarged to enable space between the six primary ports for additional smaller CF ports.
We have recently added a NEW Spherical Cube design, not shown in the table below, that falls into our sub-miniature category and that uses a cubic arrangement of six (6) 0.95″ CF ports. To LEARN more please see MCF095-SphCube-X6.
