Wide Range Gauge

Range:Atmosphere to 10-9 mbar
The new Wide Range Gauge (WRG) family offers the capability of
single port pressure measurement in the range atmosphere to
10-9 mbar with a linear output. It’s a compact solution, halving the
space and connectivity hardware requirement, which can be all
important in many applications. The WRG has many novel features,
including a new patented striker, pushbutton calibration and set point
controls and comprehensive diagnostics. The WRG is a cost-effective
vacuum management solution when used either with a BOCE
controller or directly integrated into the system controls.

Features & Benefits

• Microprocessor signal processing gives seamless • Meets EN50081-1, light industrial EMC
transition between Pirani and magnetron outputs as emissions and EN50082-2, heavy industrial
well as linear output (log pressure scale) EMC immunity levels
• Automatic vacuum setting of Pirani gauge element • D-type version including cable strain relief
and enhanced ingress protection (IP44)
• Single push button atmosphere setting
• Easily programmed set point covering entire • Low magnetic field version (SL) available for
measuring range particularly sensitive applications
e.g. mass spectometry and microsopy
• Magnetron uses an advanced patented technique
for highly reliable striking, even at high vacuum or • Ultra compact, featuring recessed
in relatively contaminated conditions electrical connector

• Extended service intervals and gauge lifetime, • Easy service; both Pirani and magnetron elements
through reduction of HT voltage after ignition are individually replaceable
and low discharge current • Comprehensive failure mode diagnostics facility
