These ionic cleanliness test systems have larger test capacity and innovative measurement software and hardware. Deliver a measurement accuracy with a range of 0.01 - 30µg/cm² (auto-ranging) and measurement sensitivity of <0.25% of range. Test times are generally less than 5 min. Deliver a test measurement accuracy of better than 0.005µS. Use a solid gold measurement cell and a ballistic amplifier in the measurement circuitry.
