    HVG-2020B Instruction Manual 1. General Information The HVG-2020B is a small, low-cost electronics module which combines the outputs of a Pirani sensor and a piezo-resistive sensor to provide the user with accurate vacuum measurements over the range of 1×10 Torr to 1000 Torr.
  • Page 6: Features

    There are internal corrections available for the Pirani sensor when used with other gases. NO ELASTOMERS. The vacuum envelope of the HVG-2020B is entirely 300 series stainless steel with welded construction and glass-to-metal seals. Using metal seal vacuum connections eliminates the permeation, degradation and outgassing problems of elastomer O-rings.

    2mm bayonet jack. 1.3.2. Cables The HVG-2020B instruments come with a 9 pin D-connector. A Hastings cable (Part # CB-AF-8-HVG9M) is available to interface with the standard 15 pin D-connector found on Hastings power supplies. Cables are available from Hastings in various lengths as well. A variable length cable with bare leads (Part # CB-LDS-XXX-HVG9M) is also available.
  • Page 9: Installation And Setup

    NOTICE: The gauge should be installed in a clean and careful manner. Take care not to drop the product and avoid impacts to prevent damage. The HVG-2020B gauge may be mounted in any position, though care should be taken to prevent objects, particles or condensate from dropping inside the gauge if mounted upside down.

  • Page 16 HVG-2020B Instruction Manual The analog output voltage is available on pin 5 and referenced to analog common on pin 8. The voltage output may be set to 1, 5 or 10 volts full scale. The standard value is 10 volts and will have been set as such unless another value was specified at time of order.
  • Page 17: Setpoints

    2.3.4. Setpoints The HVG-2020B has two open-drain setpoints available on the 9 pin D connector. The Hi setpoint will be active when the pressure is above its set value and the Lo setpoint will be active when the pressure is below its set value.
  • Page 18: Serial Connection

    The default port set-up is 19.2K baud, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity and no flow control. A “carriage return” signals the end of command input. The end of a response message from the HVG-2020B is signaled by a “>”...

    LEDs blink rapidly. LED Operation The HVG-2020B will go through an internal self-check upon power up and go into normal operation. The LEDs on top of the unit indicate the state of the device as follows: System State...
  • Page 20: Quick Start

    HVG-2020B Instruction Manual Quick Start 1. Unpack and inspect all items for any obvious signs of damage due to shipment. Immediately advise the carrier who delivered the shipment if any damage is suspected. 2. Wire the 9-pin “D” connector according to cable pinout using 24 AWG or other suitable wire.
  • Page 21: Display Operation

    3. Display Operation General The HVG-2020B has an optional color touch screen module that can be assembled with the internal I/O module to provide the user with local control over device operation. All operations done via the touch screen utilize the values associated with the digital lists and commands found in Section 4.

  • Page 24: General Operation

    Piezo Sensor Auto-Zero The HVG-2020B will periodically adjust the zero reading of the piezo sensor based on the Pirani reading. This may happen every 20 minutes given a certain set of circumstances: the Pirani pressure reads below 0.1 Torr, the piezo pressure reads less than 20 Torr, and the piezo pressure reads more than 0.5 Torr differently than its...

    Custom 1 Custom 2 Calibration Procedure NOTICE: The HVG-2020B is calibrated in nitrogen at the factory and any attempt to adjust the values associated with it will void the calibration. Nitrogen Calibration The HVG-2020B calibration requires digital communication. See Section 5.
  • Page 26 Calibration Using Actual Gas The HVG-2020B can be calibrated using a specific gas to provide better accuracy. 1. Make sure the HVG-2020B has already been calibrated in nitrogen, but this adjustment will not affect the nitrogen calibration. 2. Change the selected gas (R8) to a custom gas: either R8=7 or R8=8 3.

    The Pirani sensor list (RL) contains Pirani sensor-specific information. 5.2.4. Command Prompt The prompt character is a greater than symbol ‘>’ (x3E); when this symbol is received, the HVG-2020B is ready to accept a new command. Software can use the prompt as an end of response indicator if this symbol is not used in any text fields (e.g.
  • Page 28: Command Format

    S5 of the target device. As an example, if you want to read the Sensor List from the device with address 0x02, send the command *02 SL. The HVG-2020B will accept a one-digit address, but this could cause problems; *2 SL will work the same as *02 SL, but *2 A will be interpreted as *2A which is addressing device 2A, not 2.
  • Page 29: Rs485 Mode Responses

    (0x99) will be suppressed. The S5 command is an exception to this rule; when the device is the only HVG-2020B on the bus, the command *99 S5 can be used to get the device’s address. Other than the above behavior, responses will be no different than responses in RS232 mode. There will be no address in responses.
