SVP
stands ready with a fully equipped in-house scientific
glassblowing shop to meet your needs. In addition to manufacturing
all of our Pyrex manifolds, diffusion pumps and related glassware
on site, we also provide scientific glassware fabrication,
cleaning and repair services for neon shops as well as local
businesses and colleges. In most cases the repair cost for neon
vacuum system components is much less than the cost of a new
component.
SVP offers professional repair and cleaning services for all
brands of Pyrex vacuum system components. From general cleaning
and maintenance to extensive repairs, SVP can make your vacuum
system look and perform like new again. Whether your system is
from Daco, EGL, Eurocom, Transco, Voltarc, or a one-off rendition
from an independent shop, SVP Neon Equipment can clean and repair
it to like-new condition.
Our in-house glass shop allows us to provide same day repair
services in most cases, a service other neon equipment
manufacturers simply cannot offer as their glass work is
contracted out. Provided prior arrangements are made so we are
expecting an item for repair (usually 24 hours notice is
sufficient) and the item is received by 10:30 AM our time, we can
clean, repair, oven anneal and vacuum check the component and
return ship it the same day for next day delivery if necessary.

When a glassware repair is necessary silicone or fluorinated
grease must be completely removed by chemical means if a long-term
successful repair is to be expected. For example, the often used
method of attempting to burn off silicone grease in an annealing
oven prior to a repair only worsens the situation as many times
the oven temperature is too high and will literally burn the
grease into the structure of the glass, thereby making any repair
questionable. If not removed by chemical means prior to repair and
annealing, the silicone film will be sealed into the glass where
the repair is made.
