VSR – Compact vacuum transmitter with piezo and Pirani sensor

From April a new combination transducer complements the Analogline product family, which consists of compact vacuum transducers with an analog output signal.  The new VSR combines a Piezo and a Pirani sensor. This combination does not only extend the measuring range to 2000 – 5e-5 mbar, but also achieves a high level of accuracy over the entire measuring range, including also rough vacuum. Above 15 mbar the measurement is independent of the gas type. The short response time of maximum 18 ms and ...

Thyracont Vacuum Sensors for your Heat Treatment Application

The German company and innovation leader Thyracont Vacuum Instruments has developed and manufactured high quality vacuum measurement and control instruments for the whole measuring range from rough to ultra-high vacuum since 1970. Its product range consists of robust transducers (Analogline), intelligent gauges (Smartline), handheld compact vacuum meters (VD8) and more. Heat treatment applications claim for a high level of durability, reliability and resistance especially in pre-vacuum. Be it piezo, Pirani, capacitance, cold cathode (inverted magnetron) or hot cathode (Bayard-Alpert) gauges, Thyracont products use and combine the most refined sensor technologies and measurement principles in such a way that they meet the most demanding vacuum measurement standards.

Compact 4 Channel Vacuum Controller

The new Vacuum Display and Control Unit VD14 with four measuring channels from Thyracont Vacuum Instruments is going to be available from February 2018. The VD14 features a large graphic LCD display with background illumination in a very compact 19“ metal housing. A very comfortable operation is offered by a menu-driven operator guidance. The status of the four available relay switches is apparent in the display. These relay switches can be assigned to any of the four channels and can be linked to different switching modes e.g. relay one switches to channel three at measuring range underflow.
