  • Page 2: Product Identification

    Design and Function Based on a supply voltage of 24 V the PTR 225, PTR 225 S or PTR 237 generates the internal supply voltages required for operation of the integrated Penning mea- surement system. The PTR 225, PTR 225 S or PTR 237 supplies a logarithmic representation of the vacuum pressure by way of a voltage signal which ranges from 0.66 V to 10 V.
  • Page 3: Scope Of Delivery

    The PTR 225 S Penning gauge is equipped with an adjustable switching threshold. The switching element is a relay. The status of the threshold is indicated by a LED.

    70 °C. Before baking out, you must make sure that an aluminum edged seal (PTR 225 / PTR 225 S) or a copper seal (PTR 237) is used as the flange seal. The Penning gauge PTR 225, PTR 225 S or PTR 237 are equipped with all-metal sensing cells so that any outgassing caused by polymer seals is entirely avoided.
