Spectra International's HPQ2 Quadrupole RGA is Now Available.MORGAN HILL, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 10, 1998--Spectra International (http://www.spectra-rga.com), a developer and manufacturer of in-situ sensors and residual gas analyzers A residual gas analyzer (RGA) is a small and usually rugged mass spectrometer, typically designed for process control and contamination monitoring in the semiconductor industry. , today announced that the new HPQ HPQ Hewlett-Packard Corporation (NYSE) HPQ High Priority Queue 2 high pressure RGA RGA Reinsurance Group of America RGA Return Goods Authorization RGA Republican Governors Association RGA Residual Gas Analyzer RGA Royal Garrison Artillery RGA Restricted Growth Association (UK) RGA Rate Gyro Assembly is now available. As a recent addition to the Spectra range of quadrupole A quadrupole is one of a sequence of configurations of electric charge or gravitational mass that can exist in ideal form, but it is usually just part of a multipole expansion of a more complex structure reflecting various orders of complexity. RGAs, HPQ2 requires no pumps, making it ideal for demanding applications. For less demanding applications at higher pressures, the HPQ2 is ideal because it does not require a support pumping package. HPQ2 is extremely compact with an insertion length of less than 1.3 inches into the chamber. The RGA electronics are housed in a compact control module which mounts directly onto the analyzer analyzer /ana·ly·zer/ (an´ah-li?zer) 1. a Nicol prism attached to a polarizing apparatus which extinguishes the ray of light polarized by the polarizer. 2. . "HPQ2 is quite an advancement in the area of quadrupole RGAs," said Mike Dent, president and CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board. of Spectra International. "With its compact size and pump-free design, it is able to function at a number of different pressures. We've developed an alternative solution for speeding up preventive maintenanceand improving yield." The HPQ2 uses the powerful automation features of Process Eye, Spectra's user-friendly sensor control software package, which integrates and automates the operation of HPQ2 on the process tool. Markets that would be most interested in HPQ2 include the semiconductor industry, research institutions, universities, aerospace applications, high vacuum research and leak (programming) leak - With a qualifier, one of a class of resource-management bugs that occur when resources are not freed properly after operations on them are finished, so they effectively disappear (leak out). This leads to eventual exhaustion as new allocation requests come in. detection work. For additional information on the HPQ2, visit Spectra on the Web at www.spectra-rga.com.
