CM Series

The World's First Dual-Method Ionic Contamination Tester
Revolutionising electronic manufacturing quality control, the CM Series is a cutting-edge 6 Sigma verified system that combines traditional ROSE testing with innovative Process Ionic Contamination Testing (PICT). This game-changing device provides unprecedented precision in measuring ionic contamination on electronic circuit boards, components, and assemblies.
- New Capability to run ROSE test and PICT
- New Advanced traceability features for tracking boards and their history
- New Software featuring a new user interface for an enhanced user experience
- New Alarms for solution leakage and reduced ventilation
- New Built-in conductivity meter
- Improved automatic temperature and CO2 compensation to remove any effects of atmospheric pollution from contamination results.
- Improved serviceability
- Improved accuracy and stability with redesigned hardware for optimum measurement capability
- The CM Series is Six-Sigma (6σ) verified as a process control tool
- The CM series has proven Gauge R&R (Repeatability and Reliability) of ~2%
- High fluid circulation rate, ensuring fast removal of ionic contaminants from PCBA whilst providing smooth, bubble-free circulation at all times
- Unique CURVE-FITTING Analysis algorithm (Merit of Fit) to predict results of longer tests
- Unique solid gold measuring cell, ballistic amplifier providing a test accuracy of <0.005μS/cm
- Complete testing cycle of only 3-minutes & full regeneration in typically < 6 minutes

The CM Series includes a range of tools and accessories that fully equip the user with all necessary items to perform Contamination Testing (all included as standard with the system). All tools can be ordered on an individual basis, and can be retro-fitted to our original CM Series.
Within our comprehensive Accessories Kit:
- Thermometer
- Cleaning Brush
- Fluid Dispenser
- ESD Wrist Strap
- Steel Ruler
- Claw Pick-up Tool
- CM Software USB Stick
- Fluid Draining Tool

Our range of PCB and Component Handling Frames are an effective tool in providing quick and reliable insertion, drainage and removal of boards from the Test chamber during the testing procedure.
They compromise an Electropolished Stainless Steel frame that includes wire supports for larger boards and a mesh basket for smaller boards and components.
Rotating draining arms allow the frame to rest on the tank edge once testing is complete so that the test solution can drain off of the test piece and back into the test chamber.
