Take a look at your camera or mobile phone – see the tint on the lens; that’s a vacuum coating. …and the chip that processes the call or captures the image; that’s made under vacuum. ..and the colour display; that’s an LCD for which vacuum is essential.

AIGX Active Ion Gauge

The Edwards Active Ion Gauge (AIGX) is a compact active ion gauge with dual yttria coated iridium filaments, a wide measuring range from 5 x 10-2 to 5 x 10-10 Torr (6.6 x 10-2 to 6.6 x 10-10 mbar) and a 1 Volt/decade linear output. The Edwards AIGX incorporates all benefits of the industry standard active gauging concept, with integral electronics and replaceable tube. The gauge has a degas facility and includes features to protect and extend the life of the filaments. The AIGX benefits from extremely low emissions of charged particles, which makes it an excellent choice for processes where background noise is undesirable.
