Bluetooth for Vacuum Transducers

The new Bluebridge™ Adapter SLKBT allows for wireless communication of up to 16 Smartline™ vacuum transducers. The Bluetooth® wireless connection reaches up to 100 m (class 1). To this end, the Bluebridge module is plugged on a transducer which is, where required, connected to further transducers with cables in between, forming an RS485 bus. The transducers are subsequently available in the VacuGraph™ Software on a PC with Bluetooth receiver, where they can be easily configured, monitored as well as tele-controlled, and measuring results can be saved for quality assurance in a comfortable way. Alternatively, a programmable logic control (PLC) can be used as Bluetooth master.

A chameleon in the vacuum

Smartline vacuum transducers can adapt themselves exactly to predominant ambient condi-tions of your vacuum application. Practically speaking: The 0 – 10 V output signal of the transmitters is scalable in accordance with the desired characteristic curve. This works by means of a simple software command, which is sent via the digital RS485 in-terface of the gauge, and can be implemented at delivery ex works or simply by the user himself. It is therefore possible to scale, for example, the measuring range of a Pirani to 1.5 - 8.5 V, 1 - 9 V or to 2 - 9 V.

100% Robusta – Pirani with platinum rhodium Helix

The Pirani sensor in the VCP has a platinum rhodium filament. The new sensor is thus not only suitable for corrosive gas applications in a range of 100 … 5e-4 hPa. The relatively smooth surface of this material reduces deposits of oil vapors or other contaminations and therefore ensures a particularly high durability of the filament which has been verified in field tests with especially critical applications. The sensor can even withstand steam pressure sterilizations.

Heavy duty outside – Smart technology inside: The new addition to the Smartline Family with combination sensor for loadlock applications and fine vacuum

The Smartline family presents itself completely redesigned. Packed in stable, fail-safe full metal housing, they combine modern design with intelligent technology in an elegant way. As a new member of the family, the vacuum Smartline Transmitter VSR aims at applications in the load lock, analysis technology, coating and process engineering. The sensor combination of piezoresistive sensor and Pirani filament, used in the VSR, measures from 1200 hPa (900 Torr) to 1e-4 hPa (Torr ) with optimal resolution and high accuracy.

Thyracont Vacuum Instruments GmbH is an Authorized Economic Operator (AEO-F)

Thyracont was awarded to the circle of “authorized economic operators” with the highest award “AEO-F” as one of 30 medium-sized companies in Lower Bavaria (1). In combination with the award of “Authorized Exporter” this means a faster handling in customs matters, as well as shorter lead times in international trade guarantees, benefiting all our international customers in the form of shorter delivery times. Triggered by the increasing globalization and the changed international security situation one can attain the status of “authorized economic operator” since the year 2008. This award shows reliability, trustworthiness and brings simplifications in the customs clearance with it.
