    (5 mA emission current). Depending on the application, this function can be activated via a Single-, Dual- or MaxiGauge™ measurement and control unit, manually or automatically by the control system (e.g. PLC). The PBR260 automatically turns the bakeout off after 3 minutes, if the bakeout has not been stopped before.
