MKS Instruments, Inc. has introduced the Granville-Phillips Series 500 Cold Cathode Gauge, which sets a new accuracy standard (±10%) for wide pressure range CC gauges. The Series 500 features a longer lifetime than traditional CC gauges. Its patent-pending method for determining pressure dosage over time provides for predictive maintenance, and USB connectivity assures ease of setup and pressure monitoring.
The Series 500 offers a wide measurement range from 10-10 to 10-2 Torr, and includes electronics, digital and analog interfaces. The USB interface and GP Connect software provides setup and diagnostics, including screens for setting up the gauge, graphing the pressure trend, and checking usage statistics. Applications include R&D, coating, semiconductor, analytical, high energy physics, general vacuum, and other applications requiring long life and accuracy.
