high vacuum environment

How is a High Vacuum Achieved?

Achieving a high vacuum involves several stages:
Roughing Pumps: These pumps reduce the pressure to a medium vacuum level (around 10-3 to 10-6 torr).
High Vacuum Pumps: Once the roughing pump has lowered the pressure, high vacuum pumps like turbomolecular or cryogenic pumps take over to achieve the desired high vacuum levels.
Measurement: Instruments such as ion gauges and residual gas analyzers monitor the vacuum levels to ensure the environment remains within the required parameters.
