Abstract
Cryopumps can provide economical profits with a relatively high pumping speed per size. However, it is somewhat doubtful that pumping performance of cryopums, which is very sensitive to the temperature of the adsorption panel, can be maintained or recovered fast for large continuous or impulsive gas loads. The official evaluation items indicating cryopump performance for gas loads are the maximum throughput and the crossover value. There are two other, unofficial but widely used, items, the Ar recovery time and gulp characteristics. Although these evaluation items look absolutely different with each other, there are close relations and even duplications in their test schemes. Therefore, it is necessary to study how to improve practically each test procedure, and combine or unify some procedures.
