Robust measurement system and full range combination measurement system
VIM-1 Spinning rotor gauge instrument
- Measurement range 1×10-6 to 10 mbar (7.5×10-7 to 7.5 Torr)
- Easy to use by one-button operation
- Corrosion resistant 316 stainless steel sensor
- Low-cost disposable sensor for industrial applications
- Full-range package with SmartPirani™ transducer available
ADVANTAGES
- Excellent long-term stability
- Digital RS-232 or RS-485 interface
- Bakeable all-metal sensor design
- Passive high vacuum sensor without ion- or heat source
The VIM-1 instrument is based on a robust spinning rotor gauge vacuum sensor that measures the pressure-dependent molecular drag on a magnetically levitated spinning steel ball.
APPLICATION
- Cryogenic and liquid gas vessels
- Vacuum insulation panel (VIP)
- Rate-of-rise outgassing testing
