MKS Series 355 Hot Cathode Transducer GP
The Micro-Ion®Hot Cathode Transducer combines the world’s smallest ionization gauge withcontrol electronics to create a compact, convenient, reliable, and cost-saving solution formany high vacuum applicati**. The Micro-Ion gauge includes many features that providemuch more accurate and repeatable measurement than traditional Bayard-Alpert gaugesfrom 5 x 10-2Torr to 10-9Torr. The all-metal package is a rugged enclosure and providing ahigh level of immunity to electrical noise. High performance in a small volume is achievedthough several enhancements including a patented dual ion collector design that optimizeselectron motion and ion collection.Transducers are available with analog output, RS485 or DeviceNetTMinterfaces. The analogoutput and DeviceNet versi** have a digital display option for convenient, point-of-usepressure readout.
Wide Measurement Range:Allows vacuum systemperformance to be monitored continuously from 5 x 10-2to 10-9Torr (7 x 10-2to 10-9mbar, 7 to 10-7Pa).•Dual Filaments:Dual, burn-out resistant yttria-coatediridium flaments provide long gauge life. Unscheduleddowntime is avoided by using the second flament asa back-up until the gauge can be replaced duringregular maintenance procedures.
