Operation

When the supply voltage is applied, the measuring signal is
available between pins 3 and 5. Over the whole measurement
range, the measuring signal is output as a logarithm of the
pressure (measuring signal vs. pressure  "Technical Data").
The LED on the gauge indicates the
operating state:
Gas Type Dependence
The measurement value depends on the type of gas being
measured. The value displayed is accurate for dry air, O
and N
. It can be mathematically converted for other gases

( "Technical Data").
If the gauge is operated in connection with an Agilent vacuum
gauge controller, a calibration factor can be entered for correc-
tion of the reading.

Caution
Turn on the gauge only at pressures <10
prevent excessive contamination.
If you are using an Agilent measurement unit for
Compact Gauges with at least two gauge connec-
tions, the cold cathode gauge can be controlled, for
example, by a Pirani gauge.
