These controllers combine the technologies of the cold cathode, standard Pirani, convection Pirani, thermocouple, and capacitance manometer sensors to measure from ultrahigh vacuum to overatmospheric pressure.
Features
- Control up to five sensors simultaneously
- Configured to the user's specifications regarding sensor, line voltage and frequency, units of measure, and communication choice
- May contain a cold cathode board, and can be configured with two more gauge boards to accommodate up to four additional gauges
- Can also be configured with two additional cold cathode boards, enabling the simultaneous operation of three high vacuum gauges
- Dual or single gauge boards for the standard Pirani, convection Pirani, thermocouple, and capacitance manometer sensors
Along with analog outputs, the 937B can input and output digital data for direct computer communication. A slot is available in the controller for an optional board that supports RS-232, RS-485, or Profibus DPV1 communications. The 937B can communicate with a host computer with either of these ports.
