The pumping speed of ISPs (ion sputter pumps) varies with pressure as shown in Figure 4210a. The operating pressure is in the range of less than 10-7 bar because the space charge in the Penning cells changes into a glow discharge and the sputtering process stops at higher pressures. The maximum pumping speed of ISPs is reached at about 10-9 bar.
