hexisense proudly sold By Australian vacuum

Hexisense SA makes instrumentation based on gallium nitride semiconductors, the same tough material that powered the LED lighting revolution. Our first offering, OxyGaN, is built around a chip that combines a traditional total pressure vacuum sensor with a proprietary oxygen chemical sensor. Together, these sensors measure total pressure, oxygen partial pressure, and water vapor partial pressure in vacuum manufacturing. A "revolutionary new vacuum gauge"

OxyGaN is a drop-in replacement for a pressure gauge that provides both chemical and physical measures of vacuum quality from high to rough vacuum — where mass spectrometers would require differential pumping — at the price of a pressure gauge. These two signals improve the return-on-investment for expensive process equipment by:

• Safeguard your product with in-situ vacuum quality monitoring
• Speed up your freeze-drying process with endpoint detection
• Track vacuum quality over time for predictive maintenance
• Restart your process faster after maintenance or load lock openin

OxyGaN’s integrated leak detection capability is for application in the following industries:

• Semiconductors
• Thin film coatings
• Freeze-drying / lyophilization of food and pharmaceuticals
• Food packaging
• Research and development
