Crystal 12® Sensor

Auto Crystal Switching Maximizes Production Time

The INFICON Crystal 12 Sensor replaces its crystals automatically without interrupting your process, when partnered with the INFICON IC6 Thin Film Deposition Controller. Whenever a crystal becomes unstable or fails, IC6 signals the Crystal 12 sensor carousel to immediately rotate a new crystal into position, for continuous deposition rate monitoring. To further minimize downtime, crystals can be preloaded into a second optional carousel, which can then be quickly and easily exchanged with the carousel containing the exhausted crystals, minimizing the time the system is open.

Use Part Finder to select sensor configuration.

FEATURES

  • Holds 12 crystals with robust, automatic switching to maximize process up-time
  • Easy-to-remove carousel allows fast replacement of all 12 crystals
  • Stable crystal temperature, because crystal switching is pneumatically-driven (competitive units use heat generating motors)
  • Easy-to-remove front deposition shield protects the crystals and carousel from material accumulation, minimizing the need to remove entire sensor for maintenance
  • Optional mounting-post kit can be user-modified to accommodate metric hardware
