972B DualMag™ Cold Cathode - MicroPirani™ Vacuum Transducers
Model: 972B-21024

Overview
Overview
The 972B-21024 DualMag Cold Cathode Vacuum Transducer offers a measurement range from 1x10-8 Torr to atmospheric pressure and features a size NW25 ISO-KF flange fitting. It has an RS232 digital communication interface for setup of transducer parameters and to provide real time pressure measurement. DualMag transducers combine cold cathode inverted magnetron and MicroPirani thermal conductivity MEMS sensor technologies. The MicroPirani automatically controls the cold cathode sensor to ensure optimal ignition pressure. The MicroPirani offers 1-2 decades lower measuring range than a traditional pirani gauge, subsequently by lowering the cold cathode activation pressure gauge, reliability is improved and the service interval extended. All Series 970B transducers have an analog pressure output of 0.5VDC/decade that can be interfaced to external analog equipment for pressure readout or control. Other analog outputs and curves can be selected via the digital user interface. The Series 970B have standard 15 pin HD Sub-D connector. It can also emulate analog voltage outputs from a variety of other vacuum transducers. The emulation feature can be used to upgrade and replace other vendors’ gauges in OEM applications without changing system software. The integrated touch-screen display is user configurable; the user can change pressure units, orientation and has access to set point parameters as well as gas type. The display also indicates the status of the available set point relays. Displayed pressure reading from individual sensors or combined reading can be seen from >5 meters away on the high contrast display.
