VD83 Compact Vacuum Meter

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document provides detailed information about the VD83 Compact Vacuum Meter, a versatile instrument suitable for both portable use and permanent installation in vacuum facilities. It can operate on battery or external power supply and includes an integrated data logger capable of storing up to 2000 measurement values.
Specifications: The VD83 vacuum meter uses a Pirani sensor with a durable helix filament, offering stable measurements due to optimized temperature compensation. It is designed for ultra-high vacuum applications with a metal-sealed stainless steel measuring cell. The measurement range is from 100 to 5e-4 mbar, with a maximum overload capacity of 4 bar absolute. The device features a resolution of 1 mbar for 100 - 10 mbar and a more precise reading for values below 10 mbar.
Features: The vacuum meter supports various pressure units (mbar, Torr, hPa) and offers high battery life through cycled measurements. Users can choose between automatic switch-off for battery saving or continuous operation. It includes a USB interface for data transfer to PCs, although PC connection is not necessary during measurements. The VacuGraph software is available for visualizing and analyzing data.
Technical Data: The VD83 operates within a temperature range of +5 to +50 °C and can be stored between -20 to +60 °C. It consumes approximately 110 mW of power and has an operating time of less than 100 hours with a lithium battery. The device weighs approximately 200 g, including the battery, and has a protection class of IP40.
Accessories: The document lists several accessories, including a power supply, alkaline battery, USB interface cable, and VacuGraph software. Additional accessories and detailed product information are available in the VD8 brochure.
