    DO NOT SUBSTITUTE PARTS OR MODIFY INSTRUMENT Do not install substitute parts or perform any unauthorized modification to the instrument. Return the instrument to an MKS Calibration and Service Center for service and repair to ensure that all safety features are maintained.
  • Page 10 Safety Procedures and Precautions OPERATE AT SAFE INLET PRESSURES This unit should never be operated at pressures higher than the rated maximum pressure (refer to the product specifications for the maximum allowable pressure). INSTALL A SUITABLE BURST DISC When operating from a pressurized gas source, a suitable burst disc should be installed in the vacuum system to prevent system explosion should the system pressure rise.

    Chapter One: General Information Introduction Chapter One: General Information Introduction The Type 223B Pressure Transducer measures differential pressure according to its full scale range and provides a 0 to ±1 Volt signal which is linear with pressure. Optionally the output can be 0 to ±5 Volt.

    Chapter Two: Installation Setup Note 1. The grounds of any external power supply AND readout should be the same as the sensor ground (input ports) to avoid any possible ground loops which can cause noise in the system. 2. Power requirements are less than 25 mA at either ±12 or ±15 Volt supplies.

    Chapter Three: Overview Circuit Description Chapter Three: Overview Circuit Description Refer to Figure 3, page 12. The capacitance of the single electrode sensor, which increases with pressure at the P port, is part of a multivibrator circuit consisting of U1, Cx, R1, R2, R3, R4, and R5. R1 to R5 are temperature stable devices leaving Cx as the major frequency determining component.

    Chapter Four: Operation How To Adjust the Zero Pot Chapter Four: Operation How To Adjust the Zero Pot For correct operation, the only adjustment necessary will be trimming of the zero pot, whose location is clearly marked on the transducer cover. Zeroing must be done only when one is assured of zero differential pressure across the sensor.
