The latest in those accepting the challenge of building their own parts is [Advanced Tinkering] who needed a specialty pressure gauge for a vacuum chamber. In this specific case, the sensor itself ...

Vacuum gauges work by detecting changes in pressure and converting those changes into electrical signals that can be interpreted by the user. While analog pressure gauges were first developed more ...

UHV pressures are typically less than 10 −10 of atmospheric pressure and are usually measured using ionization gauges. These devices ionize some of the remaining (background) gas molecules in a vacuum ...

By measuring system pressure with a micron gauge, technicians know two things: when a deep vacuum has been achieved and whether a deep vacuum can be maintained. In combination, this means a dry and ...
