Intended Use

The Compact Pirani Gauges TPR 280 and TPR 281 have
been designed for vacuum measurement of gases in the
-4
pressure range of 5×10 ... 1000 mbar.
The gauges must not be used for measuring flammable or
combustible gases which react in air.
They can be operated in connection with a Pfeiffer Vacuum
controller for Compact Gauges or with another evaluation
unit.
