Overview

Due to degraded performance of DVIA-ULF700, retuning was performed to restore proper operation.

Vibration measurement was conducted to verify the retuning results, and data is represented in Autospectrum format with reference material on the vibration level provided.

Following retuning, DVIA-ULF700 is confirmed to be performing as intended.

Reference

The table below classifies vibration levels based on IEST-RP-CC012.2.

Criterion CurveDescriptionAmplitude (μm/s) (μin/s)Detail Size (μm)
Workshop (ISO)Distinctly perceptible vibration. Appropriate to workshops and non-sensitive areas.800 (32,000)N/A
Office (ISO)Perceptible vibration. Appropriate to offices and non-sensitive areas.400 (16,000)N/A
Residential Area (ISO)Barely perceptible vibration. Appropriate to sleep areas in most instances. Usually adequate for computer equipment, hospital recovery rooms, semiconductor probe test equipment, and microscopes less than 40x.200 (8,000)75
Operating Theatre (ISO)Vibration not perceptible. Suitable in most instances for surgical suites, microscopes to 100x and for other equipment of low sensitivity.100 (4,000)25
VC-AAdequate in most instances for optical microscopes to 400x, microbalances, optical balances, proximity and projection aligners, etc.50 (2,000)8
VC-BAppropriate for inspection and lithography equipment (including steppers) to 3μm line widths.25 (1,000)3
VC-CAppropriate standard for optical microscopes to 1000x, lithography and inspection equipment (including moderately sensitive electron microscopes) to 1μm detail size. TFT-LCD stepper/scanner processes.12.5 (500)1-3
VC-DSuitable in most instances for demanding equipment, including many electron microscopes (SEMs and TEMs) and E-Beam systems.6.25 (250)0.1-0.3
VC-EA challenging criterion to achieve. Assumed to be adequate for the most demanding of sensitive systems including long path, laser-based, small target systems, E-Beam lithography systems working at nanometer scales, and other systems requiring extraordinary dynamic stability.3.12 (125)< 0.1
VC-FAppropriate for extremely quiet research spaces; generally difficult to achieve in most instances, especially cleanrooms. Not recommended for use as a design criterion, only for evaluation.1.56 (62.5)N/A
VC-GAppropriate for extremely quiet research spaces; generally difficult to achieve in most instances, especially cleanrooms. Not recommended for use as a design criterion, only for evaluation.0.78 (31.3)N/A

Notes:

1. As measured in one-third octave bands of frequency over the frequency 8 to 80 Hz (VC-A and VC-B) or 1 to 80 Hz (VC-C through VC-G).

2. The detail size refers to the width in the case of microelectronics fabrication, the particle (cell) size in the case of medical and pharmaceutical research, etc. It is to imaging associated with probe technologies, AFMs, and nanotechnology.
