Chris, what vacuum can this pump pull?


I think the official manufacturer's figure is of the order of 0.0001
torr if everything is working perfectly. But I haven't measured the
ultimate vacuum as I don't have a working vacuum gauge. I do have some
ancient Penning gauges and a controller I might try fixing sometime, though.

1 micron? Nice!
