These include: 4 pocket, 6pocket, 2 pocket, 180° Banana, 3 pocket 90° Banana, 3 pocket 120°Banana, 3 pocket 135° Banana, 3 pocket 145° Banana, or Continuous360° rotation. An additional dip switch lets the user select the followingmodes: Bi-Direction (shortest path between pockets), CounterClockwise Rotation, UHV Source Type, High Speed Range, BCD I/O, andEnable Ethernet communications. In addition the indexer can be userconfigured for any pocket / banana crucible layout. The Indexer alsoeliminates mechanical adjustment of the home or 1st pocket location,the "home" position can be defined electronically.SpecificationsCONTROLLERPockets up to 8digital inputsbinary or BCD encodedlow = 0 to 2 Vdc, high = 4 to 24 Vdc, non-isolatedCommunicationsRS-232 or EthernetSize (height x width x depth) 88 x 213 x 197 mm (3.5" x 8.4" x 7.75")Weight2.7 Kg (6 lbs)Power100-120 / 200-240 VAC, 50/60 Hz, 20WComplianceCE (LVF & ECD)Interconnecting cable10ft (3m), standard DB25The e-Vap® Crucible Indexer can be controlled either manually orremotely, it can be configured to interface with most deposition controllerequipped to select pockets on a multi layer deposition. AWindows-based configuration screen can be used to customize thepocket layout. The drive motor comes with a bracket to attach to a 2.75inch Del Seal rotary feedthrough or to a 1 inch bolt type rotaryfeedthrough. The indexer is supplied with a coupling to connect the 1/4inch drive shaft to the 1/4 inch feedthrough shaft. The e-Vap® CrucibleIndexer is designed to be one of the most flexible methods to customizeor fine tune crucible rotation and control for multi hearth electron beamsources.DESCRIPTIONCRUCIBLE INDEXERREFERENCEPARTNUMBEREV-CI-INDEXER 991400PRICE$225536 Phone 800-443-8817 www.mdcvacuum.com MDC Vacuum Products Corporation
