Hi Joel,

in addition to O2 a Titan sublimation pump also catches H2O, CO, CO2 and when cooling (down to LN) as well as N2 and H2.

Good luck.

But take care; part of the gases may be released back into your vacuum system again. Please read the pump instructions carefully.

Ps: see for example the link or have a look at Wikipedia for a short introduction.
