New from Robinair
Robinair has released one of the most sophisticated digital micron (vacuum) gauges available for field service. Packaged in the same convenient case as Robinair’s successful digital pressure gauges, this stand-alone gauge is compact, and can be used anywhere. The RAVG-1 employs a sophisticated MEMS Pirani-type sensor that directly measures flow. Sources say that, unlike all other field service gauges on the market, the RAVG-1 is not affected by temperature. The RAVG-1 measures vacuum from Atmosphere to 10 microns in 6 different scales, and can withstand overpressure beyond 30 bar.
The unit employs an industry first multi-color backlight that functions as an instant go/no go indicator of acceptable vacuum or leakage.
Features of this battery-powered device include:
• high Resolution and unique backlight indicator, for easy precision readings.
• a sophisticated MEMS Pirani sensor
• range from Atmosphere down to 10 microns.
