BPG400
ATM to Ultra-High Vacuum Gauge
The INFICON Bayard-Alpert Pirani Combination Gauge, BPG400, functions as two gauges in a single compact unit measuring from 5×10-10 mbar to atmosphere (3.8×10-10 Torr to atmosphere). Combining technologies reduces the complexity of installation, setup, and integration. Choose the BPG400 for affordable and repeatable process to base pressure measurements in one economic package.
Benefits
- Extremely wide measurement range from 5×10-10 mbar to atmosphere (3.8×10-10 Torr to atmosphere)
- Excellent repeatability in the process pressure range from 10-8 … 10-2 mbar of 5%
- The Pirani interlock protects the Bayard-Alpert system from premature filament burnout and excess contamination from high pressure operation
- Long-life yttrium oxide coated iridium filament
- Optional graphic display and Fieldbus interfaces available
- Automatic high vacuum Pirani adjustment reduces operator interventions
- RoHS compliance
- General vacuum measurement and control in the low to ultra high vacuum range
Typical Applications
- Pressure measurement in semiconductor process and transfer chambers
- Industrial coating
- General vacuum measurement and control in the low to ultra high vacuum range
