Titanium sublimation pumps (TSPs) are typically used as an<br />
effective way to pump getterable gases such as hydrogen and<br />
nitrogen in UHV systems. TSPs are often combined with ion<br />
pumping, since the ion pump is effective with non-getterable<br />
UHV gases such as argon and methane. The TSP can be added<br />
to the inside of the ion pump, or as a separate pumping unit.<br />
If the TSP is used in conjunction with a liquid nitrogen-cooled<br />
cryopanel, extra high water pumping speed will be achieved.<br />
<strong>Varian</strong> offers two different types of titanium sublimation<br />
pumps: filament and titanium ball sources. Filament-type TSP<br />
sources are most popular with UHV systems since they can be<br />
turned off between sublimations and thus do not add<br />
thermally-induced outgassing. The ball-type sources contain<br />
larger amounts of titanium which means longer life when<br />
operated under conditions that use more titanium, such as<br />
higher operating pressures. However, the ball sources require<br />
standby power between sublimations to prevent cracks from<br />
forming in the titanium ball.<br />
The factors affecting titanium sublimation pumping<br />
efficiency include sublimation rate, frequency, surface area,<br />
and temperature. Sublimation pumping speed is generally a<br />
constant value below 10 -7 mbar.<br />

TSP Cartridge Filament Source<br />
The popular TSP cartridge is provided on a 2 3 ⁄ 4 ” OD ConFlat®<br />
flange and contains three titanium-molybdenum filaments,<br />
each with 1.1 grams of usable titanium. The cartridge<br />
assembly is bakeable to 400° C. Maximum sublimation is<br />
achieved at 300 watts of source power.<br />
