This document specifies three methods for measuring the volume flow rate and one method each for measuring the base pressure, the compression ratio, and the critical backing pressure of a vacuum pump. The first method for measuring the volume flow rate (the throughput method) is the basic concept, in which a steady gas flow is injected into the pump while the inlet pressure is measured. In practice, the measurement of gas throughput may be complicated or inexact. For this reason, two other methods are specified which avoid the direct measurement of throughput. The second method for measuring the volume flow rate (the orifice method) is used when there is very small throughput at very small inlet pressures (under a high or ultra-high vacuum). It is based on measuring the ratio of pressures in a two-chamber test dome in which the two chambers are separated by a wall with a circular orifice. The third method for measuring the volume flow rate (the pump-down method) is well suited for automated measurement. It is based on the evacuation of a large vessel. The volume flow rate is calculated from two pressures, before and after a pumping interval, and from the volume of the test dome. Different effects, such as leak and desorption rates, gas cooling by nearly isentropic expansion during the pumping interval, and increasing flow resistance in the connection line between test dome and pump caused by molecular flow at low pressures, influence the results of the pressure measurement and the resulting volume flow rate. The choice of the required measurement methods depends on the properties of the specific kinds of vacuum pump, e.g. the measurement of the critical backing pressure is only necessary for vacuum pumps which need a backing pump. All data that are measured on a vacuum pump, but not specified in this document (e.g. measurement of power consumption), are defined in the specific pump standard.

This document, in conjunction with ISO 21360-1, specifies methods for the measurement of performance characteristics of turbomolecular vacuum pumps. It is applicable to all sizes and all types of turbomolecular vacuum pumps, including those — with mechanical or magnetic bearings; — with or without an additional drag stage(s) or other pumping stages on the shaft; — with one or more inlet ports. Since turbomolecular vacuum pumps are backed by primary pumps, their performance cannot be completely defined by the volume flow rate curve. Also, the driving device and the backing pressure of the turbomolecular vacuum pump is important to the performance. The following completes the performance characteristics: — information about throughputs and backing pressure of the turbomolecular vacuum pump; — the compression ratio curve (compression ratio vs backing pressure of turbomolecular vacuum pump).

This document describes procedures to measure outgassing rates from components designed for vacuum chambers and of vacuum chambers as a whole. The outgassing rates are expected to be lower than 10−5 Pa m3 s−1 (10−2 Pa L s−1) at 23 °C and to emerge from devices that are suitable for high or ultra-high vacuum applications. The molecular mass of the outgassing species or vapour is below 300 u. The upper limit 10−5 Pa m3 s−1 of total outgassing rate is specified independent of the size, the total surface area and texture or state of the outgassing material. If a specific outgassing rate (outgassing rate per area) is determined, the area is not a specific surface area including the surface roughness, but the nominal geometrical one. When it is difficult to determine the nominal geometrical surface area of the sample, such as powders, porous materials, very rough surfaces, or complex devices, mass specific outgassing rate (e.g. outgassing rate per gram) is used. For many practical applications, it is sufficient to determine the total outgassing rate. If a measuring instrument, which sensitivity is gas species dependent, is used, the total outgassing rate are given in nitrogen equivalent. In cases, however, where the total outgassing rate is too high, the disturbing gas species is identified, and its outgassing rate is measured in order to improve the sample material. This document covers both cases. Some outgassing molecules can adsorb on a surface with a residence time that is much longer than the total time of measurement. Such molecules cannot be detected by a detecting instrument when there is no direct line of sight. This is considered as a surface effect and surface analytical investigations are more useful than general outgassing rate measurements considered here. Also, molecules that are released from the surface by irradiation of UV light or X-rays, are out of the scope of this document. This document is written to standardize the measurement of outgassing rates in such a way that values obtained at different laboratories and by different methods are comparable. To this end, for any of the described methods, traceability is provided to the System International (SI) for the most important parameters of each method and according to the metrological level. Outgassing rate measurements by mass loss, which were mainly developed for testing of spacecraft and satellite materials, are not gas specific. For acceptable measurement times, mass loss measurements require significantly higher outgassing rates (>10−5 Pa m3 s−1) than typical for high and ultrahigh vacuum components. Also, it is not possible to measure the sample in situ due to the weight of the vacuum chamber, since the balances are not vacuum compatible. For these reasons, mass loss measurements are not considered in this document. It is assumed that the user of this document is familiar with high and ultra-high vacuum technology and the corresponding measuring instrumentation such as ionization gauges and quadrupole mass spectrometers.

This document describes procedures to characterize quadrupole mass spectrometers (QMSs) with an ion source of electron impact ionization and which are designed for the measurement of atomic mass-to-charge ratios m/z This document is not applicable to QMSs with other ion sources, such as chemical ionization, photo-ionization or field ionization sources and for the measurements of higher m/z, which are mainly used to specify organic materials. It is well known from published investigations on the metrological characteristics of quadrupole mass spectrometers that their indications of partial pressures depend significantly on the settings of the instrument, the total pressure, and the composition of the gas mixture. For this reason, it is not possible to calibrate a quadrupole mass spectrometer for all possible kinds of use. The characterization procedures described in this document cover the applications of continuous leak monitoring of a vacuum system, leak rate measurement with tracer gas, residual gas analysis and outgassing rate measurements. The user can select that characterization procedure that best suits his or her needs. These characterization procedures can also be useful for other applications. It is also well known that the stability of several parameters of quadrupole mass spectrometers, in particular sensitivity, are rather poor. Therefore, when a parameter has been calibrated, it needs frequent recalibration when accuracy is required. For practical reasons this can only be accomplished by in situ calibrations. To this end, this document not only describes how a quadrupole mass spectrometer can be calibrated by a calibration laboratory or a National Metrological Institute with direct traceability to the System International (SI), but also how calibrated parameters can be frequently checked and maintained in situ. By their physical principle, quadrupole mass spectrometers need high vacuum within the instrument. By reducing dimensions or by special ion sources combined with differential pumping the operational range can be extended to higher pressures, up to atmospheric pressure. This document, however, does not include quadrupole mass spectrometers with differential pumping technology. Therefore, it does not cover pressures exceeding 1 Pa on the inlet flange of the quadrupole mass spectrometer. This document does not describe how the initial adjustment of a quadrupole mass spectrometer by the manufacturer or by a service given order by the manufacturer should be made. The purpose of such an initial adjustment is mainly to provide a correct m/z scale, constant mass resolution or constant transmission, and is very specific to the instrument. Instead, it is assumed for this document that a manufacturer's readjustment procedure exists which can be carried on-site by a user. This procedure is intended to ensure that the quadrupole mass spectrometer is in a well-defined condition for the characterization. It is the intention of this document that the user gets the best possible metrological quality from his quadrupole mass spectrometer. From investigations it is known that in most cases this can be achieved in the so called "scan mode". The bar graph may also be of an adequate quality depending on the software used for evaluation of the data taken by the quadrupole mass spectrometer. The trend mode, however, often involves the additional uncertainty that a shift of the peak value position on the mass scale causes a shift in ion current. For this reason, the scan mode is preferable for most of the measurement procedures of this document. It is not the intent of this document that all the parameters described be determined for each quadrupole mass spectrometer. However, it is intended that the value of a parameter addressed in this document be determined according to the procedure described in this document if it is given or measured (e.g. for an inspection test). It is assumed for this document that the applicant

This document describes a special design of an ionisation vacuum gauge which has a well-defined ionising electron path length. Due to the construction design, it promises good measurement accuracy, long-term stability, as well as gauge independent and reproducible relative sensitivity factors It is designed for the measurement range of 10-6 Pa to 10-2 Pa. This document describes only those dimensions and potentials of the gauge head which are relevant for the electron and ion trajectories. This document does not describe the electrical components necessary to operate the ionisation vacuum gauge in detail. The gauge head can be operated by voltage and power sources and current meters commercially available, but also by a controller specially built for the purpose of the operation of this gauge head. The ionisation vacuum gauge described in this document can be built by any experienced manufacturer of other ionisation vacuum gauges. It is assumed for this document that the applicant is familiar with both the physics and principles of ionisation vacuum gauges as well as high and ultra-high vacuum technology in general.
