Device incorporates an advanced digital processing engine that enables better information management in 300mm digital control networks
John Morris Scientific introduces the MKS i-Baratron all-digital capacitance manometer - the new generation process manometer. This device incorporates an advanced digital processing engine that enables better information management in 300mm digital control networks.
The i-Baratron is a technological breakthrough in pressure management, featuring a fully integrated digital engine with DeviceNet communication.
This makes it particularly well suited for the latest generation of advanced control networks.
This new innovation is the latest offering in the MKS line of technology products, designed to bring about greater process productivity, and is built upon the foundation of the industry-standard MKS Baratron family of capacitance manometers. The i-Baratron manometer is an intelligent device that couples an advanced signal processing engine with low-power electronics.
It provides a seamless migration path for customers who are transitioning process tool control systems, from analogue to digital communications.
The advanced digital backbone, when combined with MKS's all-welded Inconel pressure sensor, comprises a complete packaged solution - providing the highest reliability in the most corrosive process environments.
As only a true digital product can offer, the i-Baratron manometer features an industry-first one-touch push button zero control.
This makes it easier and quicker for the user to set up during initial installation and processing - eliminating the need for special adjustment tools and instrumentation.
An optional PinPoint calibration function optimises performance at a customer-specified pressure value.
A high-resolution digital output, together with the analog-equivalent signal, provide accurate, reliable and repeatable pressure measurements from 0.02 Torr to 1000 Torr full scale.
The sophisticated digital processing engine in the i-Baratron manometer, incorporates ODVA compliant DeviceNet communication protocol - providing noise-free data transmission.
Temperature control is available in 45C and 80C versions.
In addition, the i-Baratron digital manometers are compatible with all downstream analogue throttle valve pressure controllers, for complete pressure management capability.
