Description

The AGP3000 Pirani Composite Vacuum Gauge employs a hybrid sensing approach, combining a MEMS Pirani sensor for low to medium vacuum with a complementary pressure sensor for higher pressures. This design ensures accurate and stable readings across an exceptionally wide dynamic range, from rough vacuum to near-atmospheric conditions. The integrated signal conditioning electronics provide a clean, linearized output suitable for direct connection to industrial automation systems.

Housed in a robust aluminum shell, the gauge is built for demanding industrial environments. It operates from a wide 9-28 VDC supply with low power consumption (<1.2W) and supports unit switching between Pa, Torr, and mbar directly from the front panel. Each unit undergoes factory calibration for precision, repeatability, and response time, guaranteeing reliable performance for critical vacuum applications.

Key Features

  • Composite Sensing Technology: Merges MEMS Pirani and advanced pressure sensor for seamless wide-range measurement.
  • Industrial Communication Ready: Standard RS485 (Modbus RTU) interface enables easy daisy-chaining and network integration.
  • Analog Control Output: Provides a scalable 0-10VDC output for direct connection to PLC analog input modules or chart recorders.
  • Rugged Industrial Design: Durable aluminum housing protects internal electronics in harsh environments.
  • User-Configurable Operation: On-screen menu allows setting of units, output scaling, and communication parameters.
  • Fast Dynamic Response: ≤100 ms response time allows for real-time monitoring of rapidly changing vacuum processes.
  • Flexible Mechanical Interface: Standard KF16 flange with available adapters for G, RC, or NPT threaded connections.
  • Low Power Consumption: Operates on <1.2W from a wide-range 9-28 VDC supply, suitable for 12V or 24V systems.

Applications

  • Industrial vacuum furnace and coating system pressure monitoring and control.
  • Semiconductor fabrication equipment for etch, CVD, and PVD process vacuum level feedback.
  • Laboratory freeze-drying (lyophilization) and analytical instrument vacuum system supervision.
  • Medical device sterilization autoclave and packaging machine vacuum cycle validation.
  • HVAC and refrigeration system evacuation and leak testing procedures.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the power supply requirement for the AGP3000 vacuum gauge?

The AGP3000 operates from a wide-range 9 to 28 VDC power supply, making it compatible with standard 12V or 24V industrial DC power systems. Its low power consumption of less than 1.2W ensures minimal load on the power source.

How do I communicate with the AGP3000 for data logging or control integration?

The gauge provides two primary output methods. For digital network integration, use the RS485 interface via the DB9 connector, which supports the Modbus RTU communication protocol. For direct analog connection to PLCs or chart recorders, the 0-10VDC output provides a voltage linearly proportional to the measured pressure.

What vacuum connection types are supported?

The unit comes with a standard KF16 (NW16) vacuum flange. Optional adapters are available to convert this interface to various threaded connections, including G (ISO), RC (BSP), or NPT threads, allowing for flexible integration into existing vacuum line setups.

What is the accuracy and response time of the sensor?

Accuracy varies across its wide range: ±0.5% reading in the higher pressure region (1.5×10⁴ – 1.2×10⁵ Pa). The response time is very fast, ≤100 milliseconds, enabling it to track rapid pressure changes effectively in dynamic processes like pump-down cycles.
