Description
The PRG are vacuum gauge heads.
The actual pressure sensing element within the gauge head PRG20K - NW16 is a tungsten
filament.
The PRG gauge heads PRG20K - DN16CF and PRG20KCR - NW16 are made of stainless steel
with a welded ceramics feed-through. The sensing element within the PRG20K - NW16 is a
tungsten filament, whereas the PRG20KCR - NW16 uses a platinum filament.
The gauge heads are supplied fully aligned. Any alignment or recalibration will, if at all
necessary, be required only after a longer period of operation.
The gauge heads are temperature compensated for the range from 0 °C to 40 °C.
The measurement cells can be easily exchanged should this be required. After an exchange
of the sensing cell a recalibration is required by adjusting two potentiometers within in the
gauge head.
