Pirani Gauge with Nickel Filament
APN 2004
The adixen Pirani gauge APN2004 with the standardTungsten filament is a reliableand cost effective solution forgeneral industral vacuumapplications and also inresearch and development.
Certain applications require afilament with improvedresistance against corrosivegases. To address theseapplications adixen offers anew active Pirani gauge, theAPN 2004.
APPLICATIONS
The APN 2004 is the bestchoice in all vacuumapplications where the accuracyof a Pirani gauge is requiredbut a Tungsten filament willsuffer from corrosive gases orprocess by-product.
• Industrial drying processes -outgassing of monomers ortraces of acids
• Freeze drying - high watervapour content
• Sterilization - water vapour athigh temperatures, Hydrogenperoxide
• Reactive sputtering - Oxygenplasma
• Fabrication of nano -structures - Silicon and Carbonchemistry
PRODUCT BENEFITS
The APN 2004 is equipped witha filament made of Nickel (Ni)instead of the standardTungsten (W) filament used onthe AP 2004.
• Improved resistance inatmospheres with corrosivegases (except with highconcentrations of Cl and F)
• Considerably longer filamentlifetime in high water vapourenvironments
• Withstands sterilizationprocesses in medical andpharmaceutical applications
• Can replace AP 2004 withoutmodification of circuitry,including setpoints
• Fully integrated into the Series2000 vacuum gauges family
