  • Page 4: Product Description

    2 | Product Description Product Description The mobile gauge TPP 900 consists of combined Piezoresistive and Pirani sensors whose measurement principles are based respectively on the change of resistance of a strain gauge resulting from the diaphragm deflection and the thermal conductivity of gases. The Piezoresistive sensor provides direct measurements which are independent on the gas nature while the Pirani sensor uses an indirect measurement method, dependent on the gas nature, see Adjust Gas Correction Factor [► 15].

    Operation | 5 Operation NOTICE Aggressive media such as fluorides, halogenides, carbon, oxygen plasma and all other corrosive media. Reduce sensor life-time! • Furthermore, dust, oil or condensing vapours will affect sensor performance and may cause malfunction. 5.1 Before Operation Dependence On Gas Type The measured pressure will depend on composition and type of gas.
  • Page 10: Data Recording

    5 | Operation 5.3 Data Recording To operate the gauge as a pressure display with data recorder functionality, activate the recording function as described below. Activate the data recording and configure the storage interval In order to configure the storage interval, the gauge’s configuration mode must be acti- vated.
  • Page 11 Operation | 5 Stored Maximum Pressure • Press “Mode” key until “Hi” is displayed. MODE After two seconds the stored maximum mbar pressure is displayed 2sec Without further keystroke the gauge is switched into "Auto-Off" mode after 5 seconds. Stored Minimum Pressure •...
  • Page 12: Adjustment

    5 | Operation 5.4 Adjustment The gauge is factory calibrated in upright position. Other orientations, different climatic conditions, extreme temperature changes, ageing or contamination may necessitate re- adjustment. NOTE Conduct adjustment at the same ambient temperature at which the device is typically operated.
  • Page 13 Operation | 5 Adjustment to Zero Pressure NOTE For adjustment on zero pressure the current pressure inside the sensor has to be less than 1 x 10 mbar. The pressure reading must be less than 4 x 10 mbar, otherwise adjustment is denied and the error message "Err"...
  • Page 14: Pressure Units

    5 | Operation 5.5 Pressure Units In order to change the pressure units, the gauge’s configuration mode must be activated. Starting condition: the gauge is switched off. • Hold the “Mode” key pressed for approx. 5 seconds, until the display shows ‘’rAtE’’. MODE 5sec •...
  • Page 15: Adjust Gas Correction Factor

    Operation | 5 5.7 Adjust Gas Correction Factor In order to change the gas correction factor, the gauge’s configuration mode must be activated. It can also be done via the VacTest explorer software. Starting condition: the gauge is switched off. •...
  • Page 16: Communication

    After the USB cable is disconnected the gauge switches into “Auto-Off” mode. 6.2 VacTest Explorer Software VacTest explorer software has been especially developed for use with Busch vacuum gauges and is available for Windows and Android operating systems. VacTest explorer features plotting and saving of measurement data as well as a comfort- able way of configuring all device parameters.
